Mr T BULL: Our Premier said he would stand by every fire-impacted community in their recovery. He also said the government will have to do much more to get tourists back into our region. Then he added that recovery is something that will not take just months but years. So it is very disturbing that the one tourism campaign specifically for our region ended a week ago. We now have the Labour Day long weekend and the school holidays coming up, and we have got Easter, and we have got no tourism promotion going on for our region specifically at all. We need to recover, and we need his help to do it.
