Supply Chain Workers

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:29): I had a supplementary question of how many Holden workers, but I am asking how many supply chain workers have been placed in new jobs as a result of accessing this website? Given there were 4,147 visitors and half a million dollars was spent, how many supply chain workers have a new job as a result of visiting this website?

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) (14:29): I thank the honourable member for his question about supply chain workers. I have some statistics that are from the end of April this year. I am informed that 3,342 individuals, as at 28 April, have attended information sessions, that nearly 1,400 individuals have registered for the program and that nearly 1,000 workers and 19 partners of workers have accessed career advice and transition services. I am sure that the work the government is doing will help people in those supply chain companies get jobs in the future.
