Trade Missions

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:31): Further supplementary: what will the minister's indicators of success be? Will he put number of jobs attracted, amount of investment attracted, number of businesses engaged? Does he have any performance measures that he is willing to share with the chamber?

The Hon. R.P. Wortley interjecting:

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:31): I am tempted Mr President, to respond to that—

The PRESIDENT: Through me.

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: —but I won't. We will have a robust reporting process back to cabinet on exactly what the missions have achieved, the number of business introductions and the number of business opportunities that have come from it, because cabinet is really interested in making sure that we try to deliver on our target of 3 per cent growth.
