MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:38):</by>  You are asking the same thing over and over again. What I have made clear is we are working in concert with the operators of the steelworks to confront those challenges, and what we are making absolutely crystal clear—and I want the people of Whyalla to know that it is true above all else—is that this government is spending $600 million, and potentially more, on the ground in Whyalla investing in their economic future. We are going to do it in such a way that sustains the steelworks and people's jobs on the ground, because that is the number one priority.</text>
