I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1)–(2) Although
the state government recognises the potential of the renewable industry to
increase job growth, no specific analysis has been undertaken on potential job
generation in this industry. The state government anticipates that the creation
of 150 000 new jobs will come from a range of different industries and
employment sectors, which may include the renewable industry sector.
