In terms of her more permanent location, PIRSA has been looking at different options. Members might be aware there is quite a tight commercial market in Mount Gambier at the moment in terms of commercial properties and we need to find something that is accessible, both from a disability point of view and also for the general community, and that it is fit for purpose. There was one property that had gone a reasonable way down the pathway of investigation and negotiation, but it proved to be that the repairs required to bring it up to standard made it inappropriate and so the search for a more permanent location is continuing.</text>
