Economic and Business Growth Fund

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (15:05): Supplementary: in terms of the Economic and Business Growth Fund, from what the minister is saying he lacks the understanding of the connection, so can I ask, therefore, how does one apply for the Economic and Business Growth Fund?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:05): There are a number of ways that people can apply. Clearly, there are approaches made to the government on a regular basis. Clearly, we haven't yet published the way that you can apply for it. There is a range of opportunities. Every minister is available and can use that fund if they think it fits the criteria. It is available for investment when the government sees fit to invest in businesses and industries and opportunities to grow the South Australian economy.
