Digital jobs

Anthony CARBINES (Ivanhoe – Minister for Police, Minister for Community Safety, Minister for Victims, Minister for Racing) (09:44): I also want to take the opportunity to thank my colleague the Minister for Economic Growth and Jobs Mr Pearson for the $4.25 million digital jobs program, which upskills workers in construction and advanced manufacturing. There are 1000 training places out there in West Heidelberg at an industrial estate at iBuild, a prefabricated building supplier, including kit homes. I want to thank Jackson Yin, the co-founder, an international student who came to Australia 25 years ago with 700 bucks in a suitcase, for employing all these people across Victoria and exporting to the world, backed by our government. I congratulate him.
