Unemployment Figures

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (15:08): I have a supplementary question based on the minister's answer and the Deputy Premier's ministerial statement: is the $180 million of capital money made available from the government to the Festival Theatre Plaza as a redevelopment actually in the forward estimates?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (15:09): Here we have another great example of the South Australian government investing in infrastructure to help grow jobs, to help grow businesses, and to lift the vibrancy of our city centre. So, we know how important these infrastructure projects are to our construction industry—thousands and thousands of jobs. We see a government that is prepared to put its money where its mouth is, to help grow infrastructure, grow jobs and improve the vibrancy of beautiful Adelaide.
