A fantastic evening in parliament celebrating the grains industry at the Parliamentary Friends of Grain event.

Great work from Nicola Centofanti MLC as co-chair for bringing it all together 💪

The Premier quoted a $200m return before anyone had been hired to calculate one. In business you do the numbers before you spend the money, not after.
Taxpayers deserve better than announcements first, due diligence later.
