Thebarton Police Barracks

Mr TELFER (Flinders) (14:39): My question is the Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services. What is the total cost to relocate the SAPOL units from Thebarton Police Barracks to Gepps Cross? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.

Leave granted.

Mr TELFER: South Australia Police gave evidence to the Public Works Committee on Monday that there would be an initial cost of $90 million to establish the barracks at Gepps Cross, but this does not include the cost of the new CBD staging area nor the additional vehicles, floats and staff.

The Hon. J.K. SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:40): The member's question both questions me and also provides the answer in the same question; $90 million is the project cost that we have identified. That has gone to the Public Works Committee, as is normal process, and was informed to the member at the Public Works Committee. The work to ascertain the cost, the works to ascertain the schedule have yet to be completed for the city staging area, and I assure the member that he and the rest of his opposition bench will be aware of that as soon as that work is complete.

The SPEAKER: The member for Flinders and then as promised, at 40 minutes in, we will turn to the first government question.

An honourable member: Second.

The SPEAKER: No, I am not certain that's correct. I think it was from the crossbench.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Member for Waite? Very well.
