(Estimates Committee A) The Hon. K.J. MAHER House of Assembly The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): I have been advised: The need to extend the lease for existing forensic accommodation was the subject of discussions at estimates committee. The discussion was based on the original estimated completion date for the new facility of 2027, which aligned with the current lease expiry. However, since estimates committee, I have been advised that in light of a revised estimated completion date for the new facility of January 2028, negotiation of a short-term lease extension for 21 Divett Place, as well as SAPOL accommodation at 60 Wakefield St, will need to be undertaken. The Department for Infrastructure and Transport will facilitate this process. I would like to clarify the above points for the benefit of the committee.
