MR BERRY: I am just trying to look for some of the detail on that.

Mr Humphries: You can take it on notice again.

MR BERRY: No, I can give you an answer which I am sure you will be very pleased with. A member of the medical profession did, indeed, ask for some rental space in, I think, the City Health Centre. I do not think he was the only one either; there may have been more. An assessment was made of the cost of the space in that medical centre and subsequently it was decided that there was no space available for him to rent, as I recall.

Mr Humphries: That is not his version of events.

MR BERRY: I will check that, and, if that is not an accurate reflection of events, I will keep you up to speed on it; but that is my understanding.

Mr Humphries: That means that you will take it on notice, does it?

MR BERRY: Yes, sure.

Horse Agistment Facilities

MRS NOLAN: My question is directed to Mr Wood. I refer the Minister to a previous question to him - and, indeed, to some discussion that I have had with him - in relation to Reynolds paddock in Hall. I understand that during those discussions the Minister indicated, as did his advisers, that there would be alternative agistment facilities available once those people were instructed to remove their horses from that particular paddock. I ask the Minister: What replacement agistment facilities are available for those horse owners who have now been instructed to remove their animals from Reynolds paddock in Hall?

MR WOOD: The position, as I recall it, is that an additional area is being reclaimed for use for agistment for horses. I assume that that is proceeding because I have had a letter of complaint from the lessee, whose lease is being terminated. I guess that there is probably a three-month notice on that. So, obviously matters are progressing. He will have three months. The time must be drawing to a close by now; but that would the reason, I expect, for the delay. I will come back to you with the precise information about that.
