Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Northern Economic Plan Northern Economic Plan The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS Legislative Council Northern Economic Plan The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (14:30): My question is to the Minister for Automotive Transformation. How many meetings of the Northern Economic Plan Community Leaders' Group have the minister and his department conducted, and how many of these meetings have actually been held in northern Adelaide? The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation Northern Economic Plan The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:30): I thank the honourable member for his important question. The community leaders' group for the Northern Economic Plan comprises a number of people, including myself as minister, the mayors of the major councils that will be impacted by Holden's closure, a number of people from the Northern Economic Leaders' Group, and business people in the north. Up to about a half a dozen meetings have been held so far. Those meetings have generally been held in my office in Adelaide. There have been a number of events that the community leaders' group has organised and most of the members of that group have spoken at in northern Adelaide, the most recent one being a business leaders' breakfast a few weeks ago where all the mayors, myself and all of the business leaders—or at least all but one of the business leaders from that community leaders' group—spoke. So there have been a number of meetings that have been held in my office, but there have also been a number of events that have been held around northern Adelaide that most of the community leaders' group, or in fact all of them, have attended.
