GLENSIDE HOSPITAL REDEVELOPMENT

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:29): My question is to the Premier. Has the land at Glenside campus being sold to the Chapley Retail Group, operating as Commercial Retail Group, and, if so, what land has been sold and for what price?

The Hon. J.D. LOMAX-SMITH (Adelaide—Minister for Education, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for Tourism, Minister for the City of Adelaide) (14:29): I can answer that. The Glenside site, of course, is the location of a really exciting rebuilding and renewal of our mental health system in South Australia, a massive investment to guarantee modern facilities that are integrated within the community, both with housing and retail. It is a great concept that will bring our mental health services into the 21st century. I can inform the member for Unley that no land has been sold by this government at that site yet.
