Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:36): A supplementary: why was it necessary for the Attorney then to even get advice when it was absolutely clear from the terms and conditions in respect of the invitation to the Walker Corporation to explicitly outline the state's and developer's rights, including there was no contract or legal obligation, all costs were to be borne by the developer, the state had a right to terminate the process at any stage without compensation, and there was no expressed or implied contract?

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, Minister for Child Protection Reform) (14:37): Well, I don't think I have said anything inconsistent with what the Deputy Leader of the Opposition just said. I am simply saying that as a prudent person—and, yes, I am aware of those words—I am also aware that there had been a process that had gone on for some time and there had been a process which had started with a request for—RFP. What is that? Request for?

The Hon. J.J. Snelling: Proposal.

The Hon. J.R. RAU: Proposal, that's right. Moving through various stages, I wanted to be clear in my own mind what was or was not a matter of contractual certainty between the parties and I think that is a prudent thing for me to do. As I said, I do not recall having asked the question that the deputy leader implied in her last, or before last, question but I am happy to check that.
