I thank the member for some notice of the question. I would
just say to the member that she should come and visit me in my office and she
will see the reconstruction taking place.
(1) Yes, reconstruction has started.
(2) (a) Reconstruction started on 10
December 2014; and
(b) Completion is expected in August
2015.
(3) Not applicable.
(4) The expected
cost of reconstruction is $3.48 million, which includes the construction of a
new extension to the building incorporating public toilet facilities. This cost

The PRESIDENT : That sounds like an invitation for a cup
of tea!
Hon KEN TRAVERS : I wonder if they got the old
crockery from the former minister for community services. Was it Royal Doulton?
The PRESIDENT : Order! Ask your question .
