ADELAIDE OVAL

Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:09): As a supplementary question, is the Treasurer advising the house that he has not put boundaries to the area that will be under the control of the Stadium Management Authority (SMA)?

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Deputy Premier, Treasurer, Minister for Federal/State Relations, Minister for Defence Industries) (14:10): The leader is asking questions the answers to which are to be determined. It will depend on the view of the council, because it is actually the council's property, not ours. It is council land. It is not state government land—

Mrs Redmond: It is state government money.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: Yes, but it is not our land.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: We cannot tell council what to do. The SMA needs to bring the council with it, but there are advanced stages of discussions, is my understanding, for an appropriate precinct. Of course, these are questions which the SMA will finally resolve as its preferred position, and, when that work is completed, it will come to government and put proposals to government for government then to consider.
