Mr. O'Flynn indicates in his submission that there is potential to create between 26,000 and 80,000 jobs if the right policies are pursued. We receive a large number of submissions, across all committees, many of which contain various figures which sometimes seem to have been pulled out of nowhere. How has Mr. O'Flynn arrived at this estimate of 26,000 to 80,000 jobs and how many of that number would be displacement jobs? Has he conducted any hard research analysis in compiling these figures?
