320 Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite) (23 August 2011) (First Session). With respect to 2011-12 Budget Paper 4—Volume 4, p19—

1. What is the tenure of the contractual arrangement between the government and Octagon in the respect of the Classic Adelaide Targa Event?

2. Has the government and Octagon secured the support of the Sporting Car Club and other volunteers with respect to this event?

The Hon. L.W.K. BIGNELL (Mawson—Minister for Tourism, Minister for Recreation and Sport): I have been advised:

The tenure of the contractual arrangement between the government and Octagon is from 2011 to 2014, covering the first four events.

Octagon, the Event owner and manager has the support of local sporting car clubs, who provided a number of officials during the 2011 and 2012 events. Local volunteers were involved in both the 2011 and 2012 events.
