Support ‘on the way' for South Australian marine life
Sky News Australia Reporter Monique Van Der Heyden says support is 'on the way' for South Australia's coast after dead marine life has been washed up on shore since March due to an algal bloom. 'Support is on the way for South Australian communities impacted by the toxic algal bloom in the form of a $28 million package,' Ms Van Der Heyden said. 'The funding will assist with further research as a new national testing laboratory will be established to detect algae and the harmful brevotoxin they produce. 'The $28 million is a one-off payment but the state government unlike the commonwealth has not ruled out any further support.'
