Question Time

Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:19): My question is to the Treasurer. Are there any pre-settlement conditions that are yet to be met before the government-owned land at Gillman will be transferred to Adelaide Capital Partners?

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, Minister for Child Protection Reform) (14:19): I thank the deputy leader for that question. The situation with respect to the arrangements with Adelaide Capital Partners are that there were certain matters that needed to be completed by the government and then there were certain matters which needed to be undertaken by the proponents themselves. To the best of my recollection, the matters that needed to be attended to by the government have been attended to, and what remains is for certain steps to be undertaken by the proponents of that project.

As to exactly how progressed they are with those matters that they have to undertake I'm not at this present time able to provide any detailed information, but that is my understanding of where we are presently. That is, inasmuch as the government was required to undertake certain steps, those steps have been undertaken, and now the onus, if you like, for further activity rests upon the proponents who have to take certain steps in order to discharge what remains before settlement can occur.
