Business Productivity
(Question No. 393)
Mr Fletcher asked the Minister representing the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, in writing, on 26 May 2011:
Can the Minister indicate the source of the claim Mr Rudd made in a press statement on 7 April 2009: 'It has been estimated that innovation from information and communications technology is the biggest driver of business productivity. It drives 78 per cent of productivity gains in service business and 85 per cent in manufacturing'.
Mr Albanese: The Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy has provided the following answer to the honourable member's question:
The statement made by Mr Rudd on 7 April 2009 is sourced from two reports in the series Macro Studies on the Influence of ICT on Australian Productivity Growth:—Productivity growth in service industries (2005) and Productivity growth in Australian manufacturing (2004).
