Hydrogen Power Plant

Mr PATTERSON (Morphett) (14:48): My question is to the Premier. Has the government expended any public money on advertising its expensive hydrogen plant and, if so, how much and why?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:48): Yes, the government is advertising the State Prosperity Project throughout the state of South Australia. As I am sure the member for Morphett is aware, the State Prosperity Project isn't exclusively about the Hydrogen Jobs Plan. It also covers a number of other pursuits on behalf of the government: the Green Iron opportunity but particularly also Northern Water.

We have publicly released the figures of the advertising campaign around the Hydrogen Jobs Plan. If the shadow minister hasn't been paying attention to his relative portfolio area, he wouldn't be the only one. I am more than happy to furnish the exact number for the member for Morphett, although if he Googles it or reads the paper or whatever, I'm sure he will find it out in his own right.

The DEPUTY SPEAKER: Before I call on the member for Narungga, I just let the member for Colton know that he has got one strike already.
