Forestry Industry

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:24): My question is to the Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development regarding forestry. Given it has been over four months since the report of the Select Committee on Matters Relating to the Timber Industry in the Limestone Coast and Other Regions of South Australia was tabled in this place, when will the minister and the government respond to that report and, in particular, the recommendations?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:25): I thank the honourable member for her question. If I remember correctly, a number of the recommendations referred to things that we were already doing and had undertaken, but we have been engaging with industry about those—from memory—very few that weren't aspects that were already under consideration or in fact had already been implemented.
