Port Augusta Fly Ash

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (15:03): Supplementary: is the minister aware of the fact that Nu-Rock Technology is being engaged by an American state to provide exactly the same service that they submitted to the South Australian government?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (15:03): I thank the honourable member for his question. I understand that Nu-Rock, when they went up to Port Augusta to provide a PowerPoint display, represented that they do things in the US. I am not aware of the exact nature, if they do that. The initial inquiries about some of their operations in New South Wales indicated that they are in the pre-commercial phase of their testing of their products in New South Wales. That is what I was advised, but I will double-check that.
