The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:
The Future Jobs Fund (the Fund) included $70 million in funding for low interest loans.

Of the 20 loans that were eligible under the Fund, six are not proceeding (with a value of $9 million) and six are currently in negotiation (with a value of $13 million).
The details of the eight loans that have been executed to date ($14 million) are as follows:
