House of Assembly Fifty-First Parliament, Second Session (51-2) 51 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Victoria Park Redevelopment VICTORIA PARK REDEVELOPMENT Mr HAMILTON-SMITH House of Assembly Waite Leader of the Opposition VICTORIA PARK REDEVELOPMENT Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Leader of the Opposition) (14:50): My question is to the Premier. Did the Minister for the City of Adelaide have the Premier's full support when she wrote to the Adelaide City Council in September 2007 expressing her objections to the government's grandstand in Victoria Park? The Hon. M.D. RANN House of Assembly Ramsay Premier Minister for Economic Development Minister for Social Inclusion Minister for the Arts Minister for Sustainability and Climate Change VICTORIA PARK REDEVELOPMENT The Hon. M.D. RANN (Ramsay—Premier, Minister for Economic Development, Minister for Social Inclusion, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Sustainability and Climate Change) (14:50): It has taken the Leader of the Opposition a while to get around to this question. Sometimes it is quite difficult to understand the way in which the mind of the Leader of the Opposition works, but we do remember his absolutely slavish following of the writings of Sun Tzu and The Art of War. Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Ms CHAPMAN: I have a point of order, Mr Speaker. Clearly, the Premier is not on topic on this matter and is casting aspersions on the intent of the questioner. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! I do not uphold the point of order, but I draw the Premier back to the substance of the question. The Hon. M.D. RANN House of Assembly The Hon. M.D. RANN: Everyone would be well aware where the Minister for Tourism and Minister for the City of Adelaide stands because she announced her position publicly. She did something that is quite different from members opposite: she said what she means and means what she says. There is absolutely no inconsistency between what she said publicly earlier in the year and what she said in terms of her submission.
