Can the Minister confirm that the consultant LRM Australia Pty Ltd are the same organisation as Leisure Australia Inc., who are managing Erindale, Tuggeranong and Civic Pools?

Answer

In answer to the member's question, I must advise him that we are talking about two organisations.

. In regard to the Strategic Pools Study, the Bureau has appointed LRM Australia Pty Ltd to do the work after receiving selected quotes from four well known leisure management consultants.

. LRM Australia Pty Ltd are very well known Leisure Management Consultants who have consultants operating in Adelaide, Melbourne and Brisbane. They have undertaken work in the past for previous ACT Governments on leisure management issues, including a feasibility study for a Tuggeranong Sports Centre and on Erindale Leisure Centre management.

. The majority shareholder in the company is Leisure Australia Inc.

. LRM Australia Pty Ltd's Board of Directors is made up of three members. Their Chairman is Ian Gray, an Adelaide based chartered accountant. John Thompson is the Managing Director of the company, and a member of the Board. Graeme Alder, General Manager of Leisure Australia, is the other Board member.

. LRM Australia's offices are in Adelaide and use space rented from Leisure Australia Inc.
