          <by role="member" id="3125">The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (15:18):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Human Services regarding housing. How much did the Housing Authority spend on pointless relocations for the Hove crossing project in total? How much valuable public servant work was done in relocations after the minister knew that the project had been cancelled?</text>

          <by role="member" id="2742">The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (15:18):</by>  I am not sure whether the Housing Authority is able to make all of those calculations. In relation to relocation costs residents may have been provided with, I think that's probably information that we are able to get for him. In terms of the costs of the staff time, those staff would be engaged in a range of other tasks. I think it would be difficult to separate how much individual officers of the South Australian Housing Authority, particularly in that regional office, may have spent on relocations. There would also be some oversight from staff in the head office. I think it would be very difficult to undertake that sort of calculation.</text>
