Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:22): Further supplementary: notwithstanding that there may be some preconditions still outstanding from ACP's perspective and the transfer of that first part of the contract you've indicated, will the government commit to not transferring any of that land until we have Mr Lander's report from the ICAC inquiry?

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) (14:23): Well, I don't see that there's any connection between those two events. I want to make it very clear that the government has entered into an agreement with ACP, and if ACP fulfil the preconditions within that agreement the government has an obligation to oblige by doing what it has promised to do. It wouldn't be good in terms of the state being a party that people could have confidence in dealing with if we didn't adopt that attitude to commercial arrangements we entered into with whoever it might be; but, I can assure the house and the deputy leader that so far as I am concerned there is zero prospect of handing over title to the land without being paid for it.

Ms CHAPMAN: Further supplementary.

The SPEAKER: Well, the convention is you have three supplementaries. Let's just make it a new question.
