House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, First Session (52-1) 52 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale BAROSSA VALLEY AND MCLAREN VALE Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg BAROSSA VALLEY AND MCLAREN VALE Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg) (15:20): My question is to the Minister for Urban Development, Planning and the City of Adelaide. Which statement in relation to the proposed McLaren Vale and Barossa Valley legislation made by the minister is correct? This legislation will not override local townships' planning decision— or from the statement made by the minister recently in the parliament— There is only one prohibition that we intend definitely to have in those provisions, and that is a prohibition against urban subdivision. The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly Enfield Deputy Premier Attorney-General Minister for Justice Minister for Urban Development Minister for Tourism Minister for Food Marketing BAROSSA VALLEY AND MCLAREN VALE The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice, Minister for Urban Development, Planning and the City of Adelaide, Minister for Tourism, Minister for Food Marketing) (15:21): I thank the honourable member for her question. It would be a lot easier to answer the question if I had a blackboard, or whatever you have these days, but never mind. Basically, if you can imagine a balloon and inside the balloon— Members interjecting: The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: Why is it so? Inside the balloon, if it is to the north, you have the member for Schubert; if it is to the south, you have the member for Mawson. Now they are in the balloon— Members interjecting: The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: No, they are not in the same balloon. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: They are in different balloons—except the member for Unley who is a Walloon, but that is different. The Hon. P.F. Conlon House of Assembly The Hon. P.F. Conlon: Is that an animal? Even I'm struggling with this one. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: It is somebody who is on the Orient Express. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: It is a man who was on the Orient Express. Can we go back to the balloons? Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: You can pick your own colours later. But if you imagine the balloon, that is the perimeter of the area. Bear with me: it will be worthwhile. This is another leap of imagination. Imagine that inside the balloons there are ping-pong balls. It is getting complicated, isn't it? Ping-pong balls inside balloons. An honourable member interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: As I said, if we— The Hon. P.F. Conlon House of Assembly The Hon. P.F. Conlon: What's inside the ping-pong balls? The Hon. J.R. RAU House of Assembly The Hon. J.R. RAU: He's got the right question! What is inside the ping-pong balls are the townships. So the ping-pong balls continue to behave as if they were not inside the balloons, and the bit between the outside of the balloon and the ping-pong ball is the preservation zone. Are you still with me? Are you with me? I will have to get a blackboard. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! Mr PENGILLY House of Assembly Mr PENGILLY: Point of order, Madam Speaker. The Deputy Premier is asking are we with him; he needs his people with him, not us. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Sit down. There is no point of order. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! That point of order was out of order. You could be named. Member for Unley.
