Shanghai Trade Office

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (14:38): Supplementary question arising from the minister's answer: minister, what mechanism have you or the government put in place to measure the effectiveness of this trade office and assist the government to make a judgement on whether it should continue into the future?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:38): Ms Xiaoya Wei has a set of KPIs and targets that have been agreed with the department. I have not actually seen those targets, but I know that has been negotiated as part of her engagement. We will be measuring the outcome and the outputs of that office and her activities in particular, and also the broader trade figures that we see, as we expect, with growth into the China market.
