The Hon. A.L. McLACHLAN (14:44): Supplementary: what does that ZF company do?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (14:44): I thank the honourable member for his question. ZF Lemformer is a European-based company that is primarily involved in drivetrains throughout the world as an automotive manufacturing supplier. They have been one of the 74 tier 1 and tier 2 supply companies in South Australia for quite some time. I have been there, I think, three times, most recently in the last month. Before that, it was probably six weeks before that I was at ZF Lemformer's headquarters. Their project with Precision Components is a great project, and I am happy over maybe a muscat at dawn at Adelaide Club to talk to the honourable member more about what ZF Lemformer are doing.
