Question Time

ROYAL ADELAIDE HOSPITAL

Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (14:08): My question is to the Treasurer. Can the Treasurer confirm that the capital cost of the new Royal Adelaide Hospital has blown out to $2 billion as claimed by former treasurer Foley on radio on 18 March?

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Treasurer, Minister for Employment, Training and Further Education) (14:08): As I have said repeatedly in this house, once financial closure has happened, all the costs will be laid before the public for appropriate scrutiny.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order!
