Precisely what activities will be funded in 2010-11 by this program, how many DTED staff will be employed and how many South Australian jobs will be created?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Industry and Trade, Minister for Small Business, Minister for Correctional Services): I have been advised the following:

With a focus on investment, migration and business opportunities, this program aims to position South Australia as an internationally competitive destination. The program leverages and complements other State marketing programs emphasising South Australia's strong economy, enviable lifestyle, vibrancy and geography. It is specifically targeted at markets that will contribute to the growth of South Australia's economy.

The key outcome of this program is that targeted markets and investors have positive perceptions and information about South Australia. In this way it will contribute to investment, economic growth and jobs.

The success of the CleverGreen Conference and Showcase was measured in terms of whether delegates and exhibitors had achieved their objectives. 95 per cent of exhibitors stated their objectives had been met, which included building brand awareness and generating business leads. 92 per cent of delegates attending the conference had their objectives met, which included intelligence gathering and learning more about the cleantech industry and the people who work within it.

Obviously, the CleverGreen Conference and Showcase contributed to economic growth, investment and jobs by showing South Australia's leadership in this growth sector.
