Riverbank Precinct

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:18): My question is to the Deputy Premier. After becoming the Minister for Housing and Urban Development following the 2014 election, did the minister seek the advice of an independent QC about the development of the Riverbank Precinct?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:18): We canvassed this issue yesterday and it would be inappropriate for that sort of advice, if indeed it does exist, to be canvassed publicly. Legal advice is, by its nature, privileged and confidential to its recipient.
