The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (14:41): I have no knowledge, no contemplation, no expectation, of any further—

The Hon. K.J. Maher: Rule out?

LUCAS: I am not sure what sort of participatory government the Leader of the Opposition participated in when he was last in government, but decisions are taken by governments and cabinets. I think that if the leader thinks through the import of the particular question he has just put, I cannot imagine that the Stadium Management Authority will be wanting to build another hotel on its existing asset base. I am not aware of any other proposals. I have no expectation of any other proposals for building any further hotels, motels, backpacker hostels, or the like, on government assets. The only other point I would make is that the Adelaide Oval is an unusual asset, which I think the former government will be aware of, in relation to the financial arrangements that were entered into by the former government and have now been modestly extended by the new government.
