Gillman Land Sale

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:36): Thank you very much, sir. Did the government receive any advice that the unique fill opportunities on the Gillman land would present to the state a unique valuation opportunity?

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier) (14:36): I can hear the thwack of leather on the rear end of a horse here. This is flogging a rather dead horse. We have been asked the same questions and given the same answers since before the last state election. I've been saying exactly the same thing for a couple of years now and there is no inquiry that's found other than what I've been saying is a proper answer. So, I repeat what I said earlier about the fact the government is entitled to rely upon its expert agencies to provide it with its valuations and also probably the more important fact that it was jobs that was at the centre of our considerations, not seeking to get the highest value for the land in question.

The SPEAKER: I call the member for Goyder to order. Leader.
