The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:25): Supplementary: has the stock assessment process with industry begun and, if so, when?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:26): I think the Leader of the Opposition in this place is again revealing her ignorance of the fisheries sector. Which species is she referring to?

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Order!

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: She thinks it is a very simple question. Which species is she referring to? The assessments have to be done taking into account, for example, the spawning season. There's a lot that is involved in determining the program stock assessment. That work is underway.
