Tarrkarri, Aboriginal Art and Cultures Centre

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:46): My question is to the Minister for Arts. Has there been any change to the time line for the delivery of Tarrkarri? With your leave, and that of the house, sir, I will explain.

It is one that has been actively discussed for some time. This government remains committed to the delivery of a cultural institution on that project and there has, at this point, been no change to the policy.
