Gillman Land Sale

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:53): A further question to the Treasurer: as the Minister for State Development, have you been involved in any presentations to potential investors in the Adelaide Capital Partners Gillman development?

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier) (14:54): I think I have answered the identical question on a previous occasion.

Ms Chapman interjecting:

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL: Well, I am acting for the government and I can say that I and all of my ministers consistently promote to any international investors the opportunity that exists here in South Australia. If there are opportunities that allow us to promote any of the investment possibilities in South Australia, we don't hesitate to do that. In answer to a question that was asked by the honourable member on a previous occasion—where she raised one of the clauses within the relevant agreement which committed the government in fact to promote elements of the ACP proposal to potential future investors—I said that was no more or less than—

Mr Marshall interjecting:

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL: No, that was no more or less than what we would do for any investor, so it was an easy commitment for us to give. We have put in front of international investors a range of investment opportunities. They consistently involve promoting our oil and gas assets; they consistently involve talking about our ambition for a mining services hub here in South Australia consistent with our strategic plan for South Australia. And, so, no doubt we have in the course of those discussions across a range of our ministries been promoting the ACP proposal—or indeed other proposals in South Australia—which speak directly to our ambitions for being an oil and gas hub for the nation.
