A plan for modern manufacturing, which sits together with the work we’re doing in the university sector to ensure that they are playing a key role in seeing our manufacturing sector, particularly here in regional locations like Hunter and the Central Coast and right across the country in regional locations,” Prime Minister Scott Morrison said in an announcement on May 11.
