Renewal SA Governance

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (13:49): Supplementary: under the current board of governance arrangements, is the Chief Executive Officer of Renewal SA still accountable to you or has that been changed and is he now accountable to the Renewal SA board?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (13:50): I am not sure if the deputy leader is intending to link her previous question to the question that she just asked, in terms of who is responsible for the management of Renewal SA as an organisation. Clearly, that is the responsibility of the chief executive, who is appointed by the minister under the URA act. Even a cursory examination of that legislation would have provided the deputy leader with the answer to that question. In turn, he is of course responsible for the management of all the staff of the urban renewal authority, including the gentleman she just made reference to in her previous question.
