Public Transport Levy

Mr WINGARD (Mitchell) (14:55): I have a supplementary question. I didn't quite get the answer to the question, so I just want to check again. Will the minister rule out not charging the public transport levy and then still requiring people going to events to pay for their public transport ticket? Will he double dip?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister Assisting the Minister for Planning, Minister Assisting the Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:56): I am having a little difficulty following the logic of the question. I guess all I can do, once again, is explain to the member for Mitchell and to the house how the events cost-recovery regime works. There are events—let's take this example—hosted by the Stadium Management Authority at Adelaide Oval, like an AFL football game. We work out the cost of providing public transport services to those events. We have discussions with the Stadium Management Authority about the cost of those and we recover the costs from the Stadium Management Authority. How those costs are passed on to ticket holders is a matter for the Stadium Management Authority and those organisations which are participating in the event.
