Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:20): My question is to the Premier. Will the Premier confirm whether Adelaide Capital Partners has provided a detailed project plan for the Gillman development, as required by the option agreement signed by the Premier?

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) (14:20): I think the question that the honourable member asks is somewhat related to something she was ventilating the other day about this project, and I just want to say a few things about it. First of all, there are certain milestones which are contemplated in the arrangements between ACP and the government and, as and when those milestones are completed, there will be consideration by the government of the nature and extent of that completion by ACP, and the appropriate decisions will be made at that time.

It is not appropriate, given the commercial-in-confidence nature of these matters, and the fact that some of the matters that are involved may well—and I think certainly, in some cases, would—contain ACP intellectual property, that they be the subject of any further public exposition by me or anybody else, especially in the light of the fact that there is litigation that continues to be on foot in the Supreme Court regarding these matters.

The SPEAKER: Deputy leader, supplementary.
