POLICE HEADQUARTERS

In reply to Mrs REDMOND (Heysen) (26 June 2008).

In reply to Mr PENGILLY (Finniss) (1 July 2008).

The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning, Minister for Small Business): The approved investing budget for the relocation of the police headquarters is for $18.5 million in the 2010-11 financial year and for $20.2 million in the 2011-12 financial year.

The approved investing budget equals $38.7 million as included in page 7 of the Treasurer's speech.

There will be a part year recurrent budget impact in 2011-12 when SAPOL relocates from the existing police headquarters premises when the lease expires in February 2012.

There is currently an approach to the market via a registration of interest. However, at this early stage of the project it is not possible or appropriate to provide what the recurrent impact is for 2011-12 or from 2012-13, beyond the four year budget cycle.
