SARDI Fish Deaths

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:28): Supplementary: when did the minister or her office first receive the report, and why was it released late on a Friday?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:28): I don't have the date in front of me, but what I will say is that one of the parts of the investigation included having the SARDI report independently peer-reviewed by Professor Michael Goodsite. That peer review supported the findings that were in the report. Obviously, having that kind of additional input takes additional time.
