Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:54): My question is to the Minister for Housing and Urban Development. Had the proposed tenants for stage 1 of the ACP development at Gillman already expressed an interest to government in purchasing government-owned industrial land?

Members interjecting:

Ms CHAPMAN: He knows what I'm talking about; you don't need to—

Mr Pederick: He knows.

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Justice Reform, Minister for Planning, Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Industrial Relations) (15:54): I know that I am frequently a disappointment to the member for Bragg, but on this occasion I will have to add to that because I am not sure I do know what she is talking about, but if she wishes to be a bit—

Mr Knoll interjecting:

The Hon. J.R. RAU: Very good, member for Schubert!

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis: The force is strong with this one.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: The force is strong with this one, exactly.

The SPEAKER: I can hear a familiar voice behind the Deputy Premier.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: Yes, I think there's a hint, Mr Speaker, that if we are not careful the member for Schubert might be able to stand on his head and lift rocks at the same time. Getting back to the question, could you please explain that again? I am not sure I understand what you are talking about.

Ms CHAPMAN: Had the proposed tenants—

An honourable member: Time is up.

The SPEAKER: No, I'm curious. Deputy leader.

Ms CHAPMAN: Aren't we all? In respect of stage 1 of the ACP development at Gillman, had the proposed tenants under that arrangement in fact already expressed an interest to government in purchasing the government-owned industrial land?

The Hon. J.R. RAU: I can suggest to the member, given the time, that I am happy to try to have a talk to her about it, but I don't understand what is meant by 'already'. I understand what the word means but, in the context of the question, I don't understand what it means, and 'the tenants', I'm not quite sure who the tenants are in the context of that.
