MINISTER FOR SPORT AND RECREATION

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION NO. 492

Bruce Stadium Lease Agreement

Mr Stefaniak - asked the Minister for Sport

(1) What will be the differences between the June 1989 agreement (under the previous ALP Government) and the proposed new agreement (under the present ALP Government) covering the use of the Bruce Stadium by the Raiders and by other sporting bodies?

(2) When will such a new agreement be finalised?

Mr Berry - the answer to the Members questions are as follows:

As a result of the current financial and management difficulties facing the Canberra Raiders, negotiations on the long term hereof Bruce Stadium have been suspended. Negotiations will be recommenced when the financial and management position of the Raiders becomes clearer in the next few weeks. In the meantime, the Raiders will continue to hire Bruce Stadium on the same basis as has operated for the 1991 season. It would be inappropriate to speculate on the likely outcome of. negotiations with the Raiders at this time.
