CEDUNA DRUG AND ALCOHOL CENTRE

In reply to Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite) (20 June 2012).

The Hon. J.D. HILL (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts): I am advised:

1. The $1.27 million expenditure was related to the completion of construction works on the new drug and alcohol recovery centre for the Aboriginal community in Ceduna. The project reached practical completion in the March quarter of 2012. The variation in the 2011-12 budget of $1.27 million reflects the carry-over adjustment made from 2010-11 for this project after the 2011-12 budget had been presented.
