MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:13):</by>  I am happy to take this because, in a way that hopefully doesn't surprise people given some of my remarks publicly in recent days and weeks, this is something that I am keeping abreast of on a frequent basis. In fact, I am probably having two or three meetings a day on the subject matter, including one as recently as this morning.</text>
        <text id="202502058f6d16d699ac4c6bb0000414">That particular question goes to a piece of information that was discussed at one of my meetings this morning being reported through from the Steel Task Force. There are moneys owed to the state government in terms of royalties in arrears, as you just asked about, and also SA Water arrears, but I am advised that with other payments GFG as a business in this state would pay the state government, such as payroll tax, my advice is that they are up to date on that.</text>
