Holden 'should give SA community millions'

Holden should set up a multi-million dollar community fund ahead of the closure of its plant in Adelaide's north, South Australian Premier Jay Weatherill says.

Mr Weatherill has met with GM officials to discuss the car maker's Elizabeth operations, set to cease in 2017, during a nine-day trade visit to America.

"We think the company should kick the can ... invest in community infrastructure," he told 5AA on Thursday.
