Ms O’CONNOR question to MINISTER for PARKS and ENVIRONMENT, Mr DUIGAN
In the other place when we asked you about the lease over Halls Island, you indicated that while Drake’s lease remains effective until the 30 September 2024, can you confirm that it is not your intention for Parks or government to renew that lease?
ANSWER
Mr President, I am seeking some advice. I thank the member for the question. As we canvassed in this place yesterday, there are a range of matters surrounding Wild Drake and the Halls Island/Lake Malbena proposal. I will not be providing a running commentary around any of those things. As I have said, the lease remains current and paid until 30 September 2024. I will make a decision on any extension of that lease at the appropriate time.
