The Hon. B.R. HOOD (15:13): Supplementary: can the Attorney-General advise the chamber whether the lease expiry date for the Divett Place facility was known when the project was first budgeted, given that this will now be delivered three years late?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector, Special Minister of State) (15:13): I don't have details, but I am happy to go away and look for them. But I do know a lot of leases are structured in terms of options for leasing. I think, and I am happy to go away and check, that the lease is managed by the Department for Infrastructure and Transport as many government leases are, but I am happy to go away and check on those.
