House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Adelaide Oval Hotel Development Adelaide Oval Hotel Development The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Adelaide Oval Hotel Development The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (14:39): My question is to the Premier. How does the $42 million loan to the Stadium Management Authority meet the Premier's commitment to 'not pick winners'? The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Premier Adelaide Oval Hotel Development The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier) (14:39): Well, again, we have gone over this quite a bit, and I'm more than happy to go over it again in our last question time for the year. Mr Brown interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for Playford is on the edge today. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: It's a proposal which is very different from the winner picking— The Hon. A. Koutsantonis House of Assembly The Hon. A. Koutsantonis: That's right; the new president of the Liberal Party—that's different. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for West Torrens is warned again. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —like the previous government did. Often, they weren't winners that they picked, but there you go. The reality is the Adelaide Oval— Mr Boyer interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The member for Wright is called to order. The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL House of Assembly The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL: —is an asset which is owned by the people of South Australia. This was not a private organisation building their own asset base; in fact, the improvements that are made to the Adelaide Oval will become the property of the people of South Australia. This is a very simple equation. I'm really not quite sure why the member for Lee, who puts himself up as the financial spokesperson for those opposite, can't understand it.
