      KILLALEA STATE PARK DEVELOPMENT
Page: 1289

      Ms SYLVIA HALE: In addressing my question to the Minister for Lands I refer to his answer to my question yesterday relating to the proposed lease of the section of the Killalea State Park, which may deliver $13 million over the life of the proposed 52-year lease. As the published reports of the proposed development indicate that approximately 200 residential resort units are planned for the site, is this not a return to the public purse of just $24 per week for each unit? Has an independent assessment been made of what would constitute a proper commercial return for the lease of pristine coastal land to a private developer? Has an assessment been made of alternative mechanisms for raising funds for the upkeep of the park?
      The Hon. TONY KELLY: It is a bit rich to be lectured by the Greens on commercial development. The member can make her own assessment of that.
      The Hon. JOHN DELLA BOSCA: I suggest that if members wish to ask further questions, they place them on notice.
