KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (15:06): I am the Treasurer and the Minister for State Development and it is my duty on behalf of South Australians to promote the economic activity going on in this state. I, for one, am more than happy to meet with anyone who is proposing to invest their hard-earned dollars in South Australia. If it is an oil and gas company, if it is an iron ore company, if it is a property developer, whether it is a Wokinabox franchise, whoever it is who wants to invest their hard-earned money in South Australia, this government is prepared to stand up and say we are open for business. If you are a franchisee or a franchisor, we are here to help.

The honourable member for Unley having withdrawn from the chamber: The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: I am more than happy to advocate on behalf of local South Australian investors. In fact, I think if I didn't people would be questioning why the Treasurer of South Australia or the Minister for State Development isn't advocating on behalf of businesses to develop the state.
