House of Assembly Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Government Advertising Government Advertising Mr PATTERSON House of Assembly Morphett Government Advertising Mr PATTERSON (Morphett) (14:47): My question is again to the Premier. Will the Premier pause all government advertising in connection with the Hydrogen Jobs Plan and the State Prosperity Project? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Energy and Mining Government Advertising The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:47): No. No, we won't—and I will tell you why we won't: because of the promise that you talked about from 2018 to 2022. Do I have to read out these comments again about the promise of hydrogen? These are your own words. Why wouldn't we promote it? Why wouldn't we be out there talking to Nippon, to POSCO, to Stegra, to thyssenkrupp about the promise of green hydrogen and what it can do in the Middleback ranges with our magnetite reserves? Why wouldn't we? Of course we are. So, no, we won't stop. We are going to continue talking about green hydrogen, we will continue to talk about the promise of renewable energy. I have to say, what the opposition—again, rather than an alternative policy, rather than an alternative plan that we can compare and contrast, that we can have an actual debate about, that South Australians can look at and choose between the two differences. All we get is sniping from the sidelines with no alternative plan. It's cheap and it's easy. Do your homework. Ask some real questions.
