Citadel Secure

Mr TEAGUE (Heysen) (14:37): My question is to the Minister for Small and Family Business. Has the minister ever met with a representative of Citadel Secure and, if so, with whom, when and why? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The member for Heysen has the floor, and he got in well within time. Leave has been sought; is leave granted?

Leave granted.

Mr TEAGUE: A minute signed by the minister on 23 May 2023 advises: 'You have agreed to attend a morning tea with members of the Norwood Parade Precinct Committee. The Hon. Reggie Martin MLC and Ms Cressida O'Hanlon, Senior Associate, Citadel Secure, are scheduled to attend.'

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! The minister has the call.

The Hon. A. MICHAELS (Enfield—Minister for Small and Family Business, Minister for Consumer and Business Affairs, Minister for Arts) (14:38): Yes, I did attend a meeting of the Norwood Parade Precinct Committee on 31 May last year. I often attend meetings at the request of members. This was requested by the Hon. Reggie Martin of the other place. One of his staff members is Ms Cressida O'Hanlon. She was present at the meeting. The purpose of the meeting was to meet with the Parade precinct committee.

I did have very engaging conversations with the committee on a range of issues, including the supports for small business provided by the Malinauskas government. They were very pleased to hear of the engagement we were then undertaking to create the Small Business Strategy 2023-2030, which is now out and for the public record. It has some good long-term visions for small business in South Australia.

We did discuss the parade and the trade circumstances of the parade, including through COVID, and other matters, and I did generally discuss how their businesses were going. I do love to engage with small businesses, particularly those in the Dunstan electorate, as these particular traders were. There was a meeting on 31 May with the Norwood precinct committee.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Supplementary from the member for Heysen and then the member for Waite, who has been waiting patiently.
