BAE SYSTEMS

Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite) (14:50): What is the impact of it?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs) (14:50): Well, there are no job losses. Is that what you are asking? No job losses. No direct job losses.

Mr Hamilton-Smith: At BAE at all?

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The supplementary question is: are there any job losses at BAE?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING: I can only provide the advice that BAE Systems has given me, and that is that there will be no direct job losses in its South Australian operations as a result of its loss of the land materiel, vehicle and major weapons systems maintenance contract.
