Bruce Stadium Redevelopment

(Question No. 175)

Mr Stanhope asked the Minister for Education, upon notice, on 24 August 1999:

In relation to the Bruce Stadium redevelopment

(1) What was the basis for your statement to the Assembly on 2 July 1999 that the redevelopment "costs about $1,750 a seat"(Proof Hansard p. 187).

(2) In making the calculation were (a) one-off costs, such as those related to stadium marketing, and (b) consumables, such as those associated with furnishing and fitout, included with construction costs.

(3) Can a breakdown of the components of this calculation be provided.

(4) Is it the case that this calculation of cost-per-seat reflects a total redevelopment cost in the order of $43.75 million.

Mr Stefaniak: The answer to Mr Stanhope's question is:

On the 12 September 1999 I circulated an amendment to the estimate quoted on 2 July 1999. A copy of the letter explaining the basis of my estimation is attached.
