Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:25): My question is for the Treasurer. When the Treasurer was the minister for housing and urban development, did the Treasurer have Mr Richard McLachlan removed from any projects that Mr McLachlan was working on?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (14:25): I would have to check, but I doubt I would have. I have a high regard for Mr McLachlan and his abilities. He was, and is, a very able public servant who is held in the highest regard, and I can't imagine why I would have done that.
