Economic and Business Growth Fund

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (14:55): A further supplementary: is the fund now open for more applications?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:55): Yes, the fund is open for more applications and the government is always considering opportunities that we can invest in to grow the South Australian economy. Just as I have said, with Mitsubishi, we think there is an opportunity to support Mitsubishi. They have been a long-term partner of South Australia's since 1980 and we saw it as an opportunity to embrace their new technology, the opportunities that that will bring to South Australia, especially in the electric vehicle and driverless cars, all of that space, that I think the former government were embracing as well.
