K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Leader of the Opposition Adelaide Oval Hotel Development The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:23): Supplementary: to the best of the minister's recollection, when was the first time he discussed this proposal with John Olsen? The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council Minister for Trade Adelaide Oval Hotel Development The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:23): I don't recall I have actually discussed it with John Olsen. Again, I will check my records, but I know what the opposition is fishing for. It is a sneaky game they play. This is a cabinet decision to enhance one of the nation's greatest sporting arenas. I think, as we said the other day, it has been enhanced by the former government's investment, which this chamber supported but put a cap on the $535 million. I think we all agree it has been an outstanding success. I am not quite sure what game the opposition leader is playing— The President Legislative Council The PRESIDENT: Don't debate the question. The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY Legislative Council The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY: —but I certainly didn't have any discussions prior to the election, and I don't recall discussing the actual concept with the Hon. John Olsen, former premier and leading South Australian that he is.
