Bowering Hill Dam

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:59): Further supplementary: I accept that the minister may want to take this on notice as well, but is the minister aware that Renewal SA has instructed a land agent to sell the land surrounding the Bowering Hill dam site and, if so, is he satisfied that full disclosure has been made to interested purchasers of that land in respect of the proposed dam development in their backyard?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:59): Renewal certainly is progressing at least one land sale that we know of, which has gathered significant attention in the southern suburbs. Of course, land in the southern suburbs—greenfields land—has been earmarked for development back since 1988 I think, so it wouldn't surprise me if Renewal does have parcels of land, whether it's in the vicinity of Bowering Hill or not, in the southern suburbs that are either slated to be put to market or are indeed at the moment being put to market.

If that was the case, then it wouldn't be unusual for Renewal SA to engage the services of an independent agent to conduct that process on its behalf. If the deputy leader's question is, 'What details did that agent furnish to the market in calling for expressions of interest, if not indeed responses for those sorts of parcels of land?' that sort of minutia I will need to take on notice.
