Luxe Haus

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (14:38): Supplementary arising from the answer: did the minister previously personally request that the Luxe Haus be removed from the South Australian Tourism Commission website?

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:38): Those sorts of things are operational matters. You let the marketing team at the Tourism Commission actually have discussions. I know I was advised that they were having discussions, as I said in my previous answer. They were having discussions with the Tourism Commission, or the Tourism Commission with the manager, or the people who do the marketing around what was acceptable and what was not acceptable, the behaviour, the use, the time, the noise and all of the things that have gone on.

We have recently seen some reference to footballers and cars being set on fire. Cars being set on fire in anybody's street, anywhere in the city, is not acceptable, but it is very much an operational matter. The South Australian Tourism Commission has now made a decision and, as I said, I was advised that they have taken it now from the website, that the behaviour that's ongoing and the activities at that house are not ones that we want to portray as being the norm in South Australia.
