Industry Development

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:39): My question is to the Minister for State Development. How much of the $15 million industry attraction fund has been approved and/or paid to successful applicants since being announced on 18 June 2015?

The Hon. M.L.J. HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Minister for Investment and Trade, Minister for Small Business, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs) (15:39): If the member had read the budget papers, she would know that the $15 million industry investment attraction fund was split over two financial years: $5 million in this financial year and $10 million in the next financial year, but her question reflects that she does not understand the question because, clearly, funds for the next financial year have not yet been expended because the next financial year is not here yet. It is actually the current financial year.

I draw the member's attention to Friday because, on Friday, the government will be making announcements about the industry investment attraction fund and all will be explained to the member. At that time, the government will be in a position to talk to you in some detail about progress so far. I invite the deputy leader to repeat the question in the next week of sitting, because I look forward to answering it.

Ms CHAPMAN: Supplementary.

Mr Whetstone interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Chaffey is warned for the second and final time. If the deputy leader utters another word or sound out of order, she will, alas, depart, under the sessional order. Deputy leader.
