Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:24): A supplementary, if I may. During the two months that Renewal SA was discussing the purchase of land at Gillman with ACP—that is, before ACP provided a detailed proposal—did Renewal SA provide ACP with any information that was not available publicly?

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Industrial Relations) (14:25): These questions, which are very, very open-ended and capture potentially everybody, are impossible for me to answer. I am not able to say exactly who in Renewal might have said what to whom—

Ms Chapman: That's why you should ask.

The SPEAKER: I warn the deputy leader for the first time.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: —so I am not able to answer that question. But can I say this: I imagine, in the nature of some commercial conversations between elements of the government and ACP leading up to the preparation of the deed, there may have been, for the reason I have already explained, commercial-in-confidence IP-type material which would have been provided to the government by ACP. I don't believe there is anything that would have been provided in the other direction which would not have been available to anyone else.
