Adelaide Oval Hotel Development

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (14:53): I have a supplementary question. Does the loan arrangement include a penalty provision for not creating and maintaining the requisite number of jobs?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:53): I have just made it very clear that I will provide details regarding the jobs, but this is a very different arrangement from what the previous government did—

Mr Malinauskas interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Leader!

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —in particular the way they determined where they would put their money. It was very instructive to hear our Treasurer's tabling of the budget this year when he went through some of the costs to the taxpayers per job for the grants that were provided by the previous government. We have a very different situation with this loan—

The Hon. S.C. Mullighan: Did we give one to the president of our political party?

The SPEAKER: The member for Lee is warned.

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —because there is no cost per job. There is actually, if you like, a contribution per job. I am happy to explain that in more detail, but, as the opposition's Treasury spokesperson, I am sure you will be able to get a briefing. It's not that complicated to understand.
