GFG Alliance

The Hon. V.A. TARZIA (Hartley—Leader of the Opposition) (14:12): My question again is to the Premier. How much is GFG Alliance in arrears to the state government for royalty payments?

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS (Croydon—Premier) (14:12): The Treasurer was on Adelaide radio on Friday, from memory—

An honourable member interjecting:

The Hon. P.B. MALINAUSKAS: Thursday, sorry—going into a bit of detail on this. The state government is owed a substantial sum of funds, principally through being in arrears with royalty payments. That number is in the order of tens of millions of dollars, and I am more than happy to take the precise number on notice. We are of course wanting to make sure that we release information at an appropriate time, and if it is appropriate for us to disclose this number publicly we would have no reason not to.
