Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:59): My question is to the Minister for Planning. When did the members of Adelaide Capital Partners first express an interest to government in purchasing the entire Dean Rifle Range property at Gillman?

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) (15:00): There are a number of assumptions in that question, and I don't acknowledge any of those assumptions, to be honest, whether ACP ever expressed that view to government or whether them expressing a view had anything to do with the government undertaking any particular purchase of property.

I am aware that there is litigation currently going on concerning, I believe, the acquisition of the Dean Rifle Range. I understand that the Adelaide City Council is in some dispute with the state about that matter, and I am therefore very careful about what, if anything, I say about that matter in here. I think the safest thing for me to do is to take that question on notice, but in so doing I want to make the point that I don't necessarily acknowledge that any of the preamble to that question is in any way connected with fact.
