House of Assembly Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Whyalla Steelworks, Job Losses Whyalla Steelworks, Job Losses Mr TELFER House of Assembly Flinders Whyalla Steelworks, Job Losses Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:42): My question is to the Treasurer. Has the Treasurer sought a guarantee that there will be no further job losses at the Whyalla Steelworks? The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Treasurer Minister for Defence and Space Industries Whyalla Steelworks, Job Losses The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Treasurer, Minister for Defence and Space Industries) (14:43): I thank the member for Flinders for his question. It is an issue that we are acutely aware of. As I have advised the house previously, the government is in constant, ongoing contact with GFG and its senior management through the Steel Task Force, and through all of those discussions, of course, a focus has been on what is going on with the workforce, to try to understand how the operational environment at the steelworks is impacting the employment arrangements for workers at the steel plant, because we have seen in recent months a number of announcements about reductions in workforce and we do not want to see that continue. So, yes, it is a constant thing that is discussed between the government and GFG.
