AnswerView source ↗
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. (1) The number of pens that will be delivered in the first stage has not yet been finalised. We aim to provide 74 pens, including pens for charter boat operators. However, this will depend on the cost of the pen construction when it goes out to tender next year compared with the overall project budget. (2) Not relevant, as final pen numbers have not been finalised. (3) The current status of the project is within the overall budget. However, individual elements—for example, the provision of granite—have meant the deferral of some minor elements of the project.
