China Trade

In reply to the Hon. J.E. HANSON (25 July 2018).

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment): I have been advised:

The Executive Director, International Engagement, Trade, Immigration and Higher Education, Department for Trade, Tourism and Investment, has met with Mr Anthony Coles. It was agreed at that meeting Mr Coles would present on the work he has undertaken in China to senior government officials responsible for facilitating business engagement in this important market.

I welcome continued efforts from Mr Coles in contributing to the growth of the state and more particularly, his efforts to grow the state's business engagement with China.
