The Hon. IAN GILFILLAN: I want to raise the matter of the National Wine Industry Centre and the Government's plan for the centre which it wants to build partly on the Botanic Gardens land and partly on the former Hackney bus depot site. I share with the Government a pride in the Australian wine industry and pride in the fact that South Australia is the leading producer of the nation's wine. I welcome the commitment of funds to showcase and display our wine industry.
 The very idea of a wine industry centre is something to be applauded and welcomed. However, I do not share the Government's fixation for the proposed site, and I will explain why. First, I am against alienation of the parklands, especially for commercial and industrial purposes. The proposal is to take 2.9 hectares of what is currently the Botanic Gardens and turn the land over to a profit-making concern. This is first and foremost a land grabóa grab to alienate parklands.
 After the departure of the former bus depot there was an opportunityóand promises I might add from both Labor and Liberalóto return that land to the people of South Australia for its original purpose as parkland. Instead, it will be alienated to one specific industry and that industry will also grab some of what is now reserved for the Botanic Gardens.
 Secondly, this is not the sort of the development which is in any way consistent or in sympathy with the parklands. We are talking about a building which, on the current architect's sketches (on display this week at Yarrabee House) is about 15 metres tallóthat is as tall as a four storey buildingóand the architect, Steve Greave, has let it be known that he is not limited to that height: it may go higher. This is a grand, expansive, large, intrusive and extravagant proposal. Our wine industry may deserve an expansive projectóbut not on our parklands.
 Thirdly, this is a very expensive, and unnecessarily expensive, option for the National Wine Industry Centre. To accommodate the Government's wishes it will be necessary to move the State Herbarium (at an estimated cost of $5 million; move the Botanic Gardens administration building at a cost of $2.5 million; and protect against flood, with earthworks of approximately $3 million. These costs are outlined in a submission to the Commonwealth's Federation Fund as recently as June 1998. The total cost of the project has gone from an original estimate of $10 million to what is now $39.7 million. The result will be an edifice befitting a mausoleum.
 Fourthly, there is the issue of car parking. The proposal is to create 148 new car parking spaces along the Hackney Road frontage. All these spaces will further alienate what would otherwise be parklands. Roughly three-quarters of them will be on former Botanic Gardens land.
 All this is so unnecessary when there is another eminently suitable site which has none of these disadvantages and which can accommodate a National Wine Industry Centre and vineyard without stinting on floor space or area. I refer to the Glenside Hospital site bounded by Fullarton Road and Greenhill Road. This site was not considered for the National Wine Industry Centre because it was not considered to be available until May this year, when the Government an-nounced its intention to close Glenside Hospital.
 The Glenside location has the advantage of also being in a highly central location, adjacent to parklands and the city without actually being on the parklands. The buildings along Fullarton Road are already empty and so there would be no massive costs to relocate the State Herbarium and Botanic Gardens administration building.
 As far as I can tell there may be only one reason why the Government would not want to pursue the Greenhill Road/Fullarton Road optionóit is not quite as central as North Terrace and fewer people might be inclined to walk there as opposed to driving. However, most visitors to the Hackney site are also expected to come by car or bus, so one extra kilometre in the opposite direction is hardly going to matter. Greenhill Road, while it is not North Terrace, is not exactly a shabby address. It has the potential to be every bit as impressive and as befitting to our great wine industry as the Hackney Road/North Terrace site, without running the risk of alienating parklands and at quite a reduced cost to the taxpayer. I would have thought that saving taxpayers' money would have had a higher priority to the Government than building the most expensive possible memorial to the Premier on alienated parklands.
 This proposal flies in the face of the Hassell report on the National Wine Industry Centre which was prepared for the Adelaide City Council and which addressed the implication of siting it on the former Hackney Tram Barn site. Section 5 (pages 8 and 9) of the report states that the Government wants a central site big enough to include a vineyard. However, the Hassell report listed 12 other potential sitesónot counting the Glenside and the Old Kent Town breweryówhich makes 14 sites listed in the study.
 Section 14 (page 6) states that of the former STA bus depot should be replaced by a mixed exotic and native Australian planting as an extension of the Botanic Gardens and park and be open to the public at all times; and that no new buildings should be permitted. Therefore, one can see that there are no pluses or ticks for that proposed site. The idea is great, but it will go in the wrong place unless the Government has enough wisdom to change its mind.
