Public Transport Privatisation

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:32): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Has Keolis Downer, or any of its associated companies, ever submitted an unsolicited bid to own, operate or extend the tram network to the minister?

The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (14:32): Not at all to my knowledge, no. I must admit I have absolutely no knowledge of that. The unsolicited bid process is actually something that gets submitted via the treasury department and they undertake that process on behalf of cabinet. But certainly I am not aware of anything in that regard.
