Question Time

Unemployment Figures

Mr MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Leader of the Opposition) (14:05): My question is to the Premier. How is it that Melbourne went into lockdown for 112 days yet Victoria has an unemployment rate of 5.6 per cent compared with South Australia's 6.8 per cent?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:06): I thank the Leader of the Opposition for his question. I have no idea what is the lay of the land in Victoria. That is completely up to them. What I am doing is working with my team every single day to advance the cause of South Australia.
