Torrens Parade Ground

Mr PEDERICK (Hammond) (15:12): My question is again to the Minister for Regional Roads, Local Government and Veterans Affairs. As the minister responsible for veterans affairs, when will the minister make public the report completed during the caretaker period by the Torrens Parade Ground Precinct Steering Committee?

The Hon. G.G. BROCK (Stuart—Minister for Local Government, Minister for Regional Roads, Minister for Veterans Affairs) (15:12): I thank the member for his question. It is a very, very important question. I have looked at the report and I think it is absolutely brilliant. It was part of the Veterans Advisory Council that the previous minister, who was the previous Premier, instigated.

I am looking at that in great detail. There is a great opportunity there to look at the whole Torrens Parade Ground. As previously mentioned here—and I've said this publicly to other people, to the consortium and others—I'm not going to make a hasty decision. I'm looking at that and consulting with everyone I can out there, including the younger veterans.
