"For the first time in Australia, two states will consolidate their aquatic science research opportunities and capabilities thanks to a new Brumby Government alliance with the South Australian Government. Speaking at the signing of the alliance agreement in Adelaide today, Minister Responsible for Fisheries Joe Helper said the project would facilitate more effective and efficient aquatic science research.“As part of the agreement, the Victorian Department of Primary Industries (DPI) and South Australian Research Development Institute (SARDI) will collaborate to develop joint projects and share research and development resources to deliver better outcomes for Victorian and South Australian industries and communities,” Mr Helper said. The alliance is consistent with the national policy commitment under the guidance of the Primary Industries Ministerial Council to consolidate research and development across state borders."
