In reply to Mr WINGARD (Mitchell) (3 August 2016). (Estimates Committee B)

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): I am advised:

1. While the value of individual contracts is commercial in confidence, I can advise that over the period 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016, a total of 50 South Australian-based companies recorded contract wins totalling $55.36 million across the infrastructure, defence and resources sectors.

2. Due to the lag between publication of work packages and award of contract, the ICN does not undertake detailed forecasting.
