Gawler State Emergency Service

117 Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (12 September 2023). In reference to Budget Paper 3, page 112—Why has the estimated total cost of the Gawler SES unit project increased by almost $700,000 compared to the previous budget and why has the completion date has been delayed by a year?

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services): I have been advised:

Design finalising and planning approvals are being undertaken by the Department for Infrastructure and Transport on behalf of the SES. The SES has allocated funding from internal budgets to address the rising costs of construction projects.
