(3) Has there been any further revision to the $61.623 million that is committed to leases by the Heads of Agreement; if so, what (a) is the magnitude of this revision and (b) are the reasons for this revision.
(4) What is the latest estimate of the capital cost of constructing the ESA training facility and associated works at Hume.
(5) If there have been any changes to the cost of the project referred to in part (4), what are the reasons for these changes.
Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) The latest estimate of the capital cost of constructing the ESA Headquarters is as follows:
|
Capital | |
|
$'000 | |
|
B183 |
4,211 |
|
HQ Office |
7,462 |
|
Workshop & Vehicle Compound |
3,708 |
|
Total Fairbairn Headquarters |
15,381 |
(2) The capital costs of the Fairbairn Headquarters have not increased from the estimate provided in E10 406.
(3) At this stage, there has been no change to the amount committed to leases under the Heads of Agreement. However, the Territory has been advised that the Canberra Airport Group has re surveyed the net lettable area at Fairbairn with the completion of the Headquarters and Workshop buildings. It is not yet possible to quantify the financial impact that this may have.
(4) There are two projects at Hume; they are the upgrade to Snowy Hydro Aero Medical site and a new Rural Fire Service hangar facility along with the new ESA Training Facility. The current estimates of the capital cost for both projects are as follows:
|
Capital | |
|
$'000 | |
|
Hume Helipad |
2,788 |
|
Hume Training Centre |
9,945 |
|
12,734 |
(5) Both projects at Hume have included variations surrounding the following matters;
|
$’000 | |
|
Transfer of Hume related design and ICT costs, which had allocated previously across the Fairbairn sub-project estimates, to Hume given the Hume sub-projects are sufficiently progressed for these costs to be estimated reliably. |
431 |
|
Redevelopment of the design aspects of the outdoor training props, to meet both environmental requirements and end users operational training needs |
898 |
|
Other variations within the Training Centre, particularly the redesign of the fire tower to meet ActewAGL requirements |
