Low Emission Vehicle Strategy

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:26): Another supplementary question arising from the answer: the minister said there are some 50 buses, has there been additional resources or money given to Bustech or this joint venture to have more buses or more work done on buses for Adelaide?

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) (14:26): In addition to the original $2 million?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: Yes.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: No, we haven't given a further grant in addition to the original $2 million for the trial of the four buses. What has flowed on from there has been as a consequence of what has been done from the initial $2 million.
