Legislative Council Fifty-Fifth Parliament, First Session (55-1) 55 1 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Departmental Procurement Guidelines Departmental Procurement Guidelines The Hon. B.R. HOOD Legislative Council Departmental Procurement Guidelines The Hon. B.R. HOOD (14:58): Supplementary: what departmental procurement guidelines determine the businesses involved in state projects are classified as South Australian? The Hon. E.S. BOURKE Legislative Council Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Autism Minister for Emergency Services and Correctional Services Departmental Procurement Guidelines The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Autism) (14:58): There were a number of South Australian businesses that were able to be a part of this incredible project. As I said, 97 per cent of the businesses that were on this were South Australian businesses, as I have been advised. That is an incredible outcome. When I went down to the opening of this—before it was open, actually—I went to the quarry across the road and that was an incredible reminder of the benefits that this has not only for businesses across the state but for businesses right at the back door of where this new intersection is being built. The aggregate, I was advised, for all of this road has come from just across the road at the quarry. That is an incredible thing to be able to achieve, but also they are able to benefit from this new intersection as they will be able to keep their trucks off Brighton Road and be more connected and be able to use the Southern Expressway.
