Trade Missions

727 The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON (Ramsay) (1 May 2019). Which companies have previously attended any South Australian trade missions?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

Companies participating in business missions led by the South Australian government expect, and are entitled to, privacy under the Terms and Conditions of the Government of South Australia's 'Mission Agreement' which states under section 18—Privacy that:

The Participant consents to the personal information in the Application Form being collected and used by the Government or its contracted service providers for the purpose of informing the Participant of other services, Events, opportunities, seminars, conferences, trade fairs and other export related activities that are organised or promoted by the Government. Notwithstanding the above consent, all personal information collected by the Government will only be used for the purpose for which it was provided and in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988. Access to the information the Government holds in relation to a Participant, is available upon request.

Therefore, under section 18—Privacy, the Department for Trade, Tourism and Investment advises that in the absence of written permission from companies that participated in trade missions, it is unable to release the requested information.
