Boeing

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:34): Supplementary: over what time frame will the 250 jobs be created? If Boeing does not honour its part of the agreement, are there clawback provisions in the funding arrangement?

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) (14:35): Again, we revert back to the Leader of the Opposition. He is showing, today, why he is Leader of the Opposition—good, sensible questions; very good, sensible questions. Again, this isn't directly in my portfolio of responsibilities. I am very happy to seek an answer from the Independent Liberal member for Waite, the Hon. Martin Hamilton-Smith, and bring back a reply for this area that he is responsible for.
