Statement regarding USA trade mission

Due to the rapidly evolving nature of the Coronavirus pandemic, I have decided now is not the time to be leaving the country.

While it is important we continue to attract more international investment into South Australia, as Premier, my primary responsibility is to steer the state and our economy through this challenging time.

My Government’s top priority is the health, safety and wellbeing of all South Australians and to ensure the immediate delivery of our $350 million economic stimulus package to help drive the economy and secure local jobs.

I want to assure all South Australians that we have a strong plan in place and will do whatever it takes to manage this unfolding situation.
