My question is to the Minister for Industry, Innovation and Science. The minister has been closely involved with the ongoing negotiations to ensure the future of the Arrium steelmaking plant in Whyalla. I thank him for his commitment. I know he is aware of the pressure the city's citizens are under. Can he inform the House as to the current state of negotiations regarding the sale of Arrium's Whyalla assets and outline what the government has done to promote a successful sale? What more could we possibly do to ensure its survival?
