Sheep Electronic Identification Rollout

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (15:01): Supplementary: is mob traceability for disease outbreak available with the current tagging system?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (15:01): I thank the honourable member for her question despite it being somewhat—I thank her for her question. She should be aware that of course there is mob-based. Is this another opportunity for her to undermine the importance of eID?

The Hon. N.J. Centofanti interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order! I am trying to listen.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: Those opposite from day one have tried to undermine eID and yet they won't come out and say they oppose it.

The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO: Point of order.

The PRESIDENT: Sit down, minister. What's your point of order?

The Hon. H.M. GIROLAMO: Clearly she is going into debate and having personal attacks.

The PRESIDENT: Sit down.

The Hon. H.M. Girolamo interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: I am not inviting you to discuss it with me.

The Hon. R.P. Wortley interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: The Hon. Mr Wortley!

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: In the event of an outbreak of a serious emergency animal disease—

The Hon. N.J. Centofanti interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: —the speed of traceability is important. The member opposite is clearly suggesting, 'It's okay. We've got the current system. It doesn't need to be improved. Traceability on the level that underpins eID isn't important.' If she opposes eID, she should come out and say so.
