There are quite a number of elements of the Northern Economic Plan. There is the small business grants area that minister Hamilton Smith—my good friend and a fantastic small business minister—is rolling out. He is a great egg and a great advocate for South Australia.

John Dawkins' compliments about the great work the Hon. Martin Hamilton-Smith does engaging with our trade partners. As the Hon.

I thank the Hon. John Dawkins for reminding me of the fantastic work that the Minister for Small Business and Trade is doing. I will find out about those Job Accelerator Grants and bring back just how well they are going and the jobs that that element is creating.
