TOURISM — CELLAR DOOR REBATE
547. Mr P. PAPALIA to the Minister for
Tourism:
I have a supplementary question. Noting that the cut to cellar door
rebate affects one-third of all cellar door restaurant operators in Western
Australia, why did the minister not even bother meeting with them before he cut
the rebate?

I did not meet them because it was not my department that had that
responsibility. I can only reiterate the advice that I have been given that it
will affect only a limited number of operators.
