The government reports that every dollar invested in tourism generates a $14 return, supporting over 700,000 jobs and 360,000 businesses.Trade and Tourism Minister Don Farrell stated: “The previous campaign struck a chord with visitors, with Ruby the Roo bounding into the imagination of countless guests, encouraging them to book a holiday down under. I know this iteration, featuring popular talent like Robert Irwin, will be a smash. Tourism is the lifeblood of so many communities right around the country and creates hundreds of thousands of jobs. Come and Say G’Day is bringing more visitors to our shores, creating more jobs and growing our economy.”Assistant Minister for Tourism Nita Green added: “Supporting our tourism industry means supporting the jobs in Australia that rely on it. This next chapter of Come and Say G’Day will do just that. It’s energetic, funny and heart-warming, and highlights Australia’s iconic places and the memories you can make by visiting them. I can’t wait to see the campaign launched across key markets, and bringing more visitors to every part of Australia.”
