House of Assembly Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Whyalla Steelworks Whyalla Steelworks Mr TELFER House of Assembly Flinders Whyalla Steelworks Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:52): My question is to the Treasurer. Will the Treasurer announce a financial support package for the town of Whyalla at his visit next week and, if so, what will that announcement entail? The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Treasurer Minister for Defence and Space Industries Whyalla Steelworks The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Treasurer, Minister for Defence and Space Industries) (14:52): As I have just outlined in my previous answer, there is already financial support available for the steelworks, that $50 million. We are looking forward to our cabinet meeting on Monday. It is important, I think, for all ministers to again travel up to the Upper Spencer Gulf, as we have done on a number of occasions, to continue to engage with the local community, to continue to engage with local businesses, with workers at the steelworks and with GFG. This is in all of the state's interests, that we have got a viable, productive steelworks that's in operation, and we are looking forward to those discussions on Monday.
