Since the establishment of my Department, the Department of Rural and Community Development, in July this year, I have not been lobbied in relation to the Public Health (Alcohol) Bill. However, on 5 October last, correspondence was received to my office from the Convenience Stores and Newsagents Association (CSNA) in relation to the Public Health Alcohol Bill (2015) Section 20 amendments. My office will be responding shortly.
