Early Commercialisation Fund

The Hon. A.L. McLACHLAN (14:50): Supplementary: can the minister indicate—and I may not have heard him—whether any of those undertakings involve keeping a certain level of employment in the state and residency of the company headquarters?

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) (14:50): I am happy to take those questions on notice and bring back a reply. As a general rule, for most of our grant programs, there are requirements about where the company is located and where jobs from the company are provided, but for these specific ones I am happy to see if there is any more information that I can provide to the honourable member.
