My question is to the Minister for Finance and the Minister representing the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Senator Wong. I refer the minister to the collapse this week of Priority Engineering Services in her home town of Adelaide, where 86 workers were stood down. This is added to the collapse of McCracken Homes last week and the concurrent and incredible withdrawal of the home builders indemnity insurance scheme by QBE Insurance, brought about by the growing business failures in the ludicrously mismanaged economy of that state.

Why do you, Minister, and your cabinet colleagues continue to let the South Australian people suffer because of a double whammy of economic incompetence from both the Weatherill and Gillard Labor governments?
