Superloop Adelaide 500

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (15:01): Further supplementary.

The PRESIDENT: I think it will be the last.

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: It's the biggest event in the state.

The PRESIDENT: I don't need your commentary from a seated position, the Hon. Mr Ridgway.

The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN: You don't know any of the answers, but it is so important to you. Can you tell us what period of time the Liberal opposition, as it was then, committed to before the election? What would be the difference in terms of dismantling of the stands?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (15:02): My recollection is that we committed to, I think, four weeks quicker in the election commitment. When we came to office, there was a correlation between employee safety, the construction workers there, and, as I said, I will bring back the exact details, but my understanding is that we can now do it more quickly, and that the budget was $100,000. I don't think it will be four weeks quicker, but I will bring back the exact date.

The Hon. R.P. Wortley interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: Have we finished, the Hon. Mr Wortley? I would like the Hon. Mr Parnell to be heard in silence.
