Drought Assistance

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (14:29): Supplementary: given the minister suggests that it hasn't been brought to her attention, will she actively seek advice from her department as to whether or not there are farmer payments outstanding from her department?

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (Minister for Primary Industries and Regional Development, Minister for Forest Industries) (14:29): As I said, if the member would like to give details of specifically what she is referring to, then that would enable those inquiries to be made. If we are talking about a situation between a charity and an individual, then obviously that's not something that PIRSA has direct involvement with. If she wants to provide some specifics, then I would be more than willing to make inquiries and to see whether indeed what she is saying has any accuracy and, if so, take any action that is required.
