E3Sixty

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:34): My question is to the Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment.

Members interjecting:

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: I am sure the minister would like to hear the question, and he does not want his own front bench interrupting. Will the minister advise what investments the company E3Sixty has made in South Australia, how many South Australian jobs they have created, or how many employees in total they have?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:34): I thank the honourable member for her question. E3Sixty is a company that I met with in Sydney. I had an opportunity and I met one of the representatives briefly in a meeting I had here in Adelaide at a function and they said, 'Please'—they were in the recycling business, and I wanted to actually explore the opportunities in the circular economy with that particular company.

We had a very interesting meeting. I haven't had an update from the department or from E3Sixty yet as to exactly what their next step will be but they are a company that is interested in investing in recycling. As members opposite would know, the Prime Minister has made a commitment that we are not going to export any more waste. China obviously has some issues with handling our waste so we have some really good opportunities in that particular part of our economy, and so I met with them just to discuss further opportunities for them to invest in South Australia.
