Department of the Legislative Assembly, Northern Territory Government

Mr McCARTHY - 2012-10-30

In your contract with the people of Borroloola, you promised to provide a new government business centre for the town. When will the project go to tender; where will the centre be located; and will it be completed before the next Territory election? Going to the CLP media spin - I mean media release - it says:
    Establishment of a government business centre allowing access to the Motor Vehicle Registry, Centrelink and other services.
Will you be closing the Australian government-provided Centrelink office on Robinson Road?

ANSWER

Madam Speaker, I thank the member for Barkly. All our election commitments will be honoured. I cannot give you a time frame for when Borroloola will receive their government business centre, but all will be revealed in the future.

Mr McCARTHY: A point of order, Madam Speaker! The last part of the question was: will the Treasurer be closing the Australian government-provided Centrelink office on Robinson Road, Borroloola.

Madam SPEAKER: The Treasurer has answered the question, member for Barkly.
