Southern Metropolitan Region

Georgie CROZIER (Southern Metropolitan) (12:33): (1078) My question is to the Minister for Environment, and it is in relation to the Albert Park Lake restaurant The Point, which was involved in an unfortunate and looks to be a criminal act of arson just a few weeks ago. Parks Victoria has managed The Point since 2021, when it was abandoned, and they were supposed to be doing daily patrols conducted by the rangers to secure the property, but there has been graffiti and a whole range of issues that have been happening around The Point. There have been rough sleepers and also an underground rave party that occurred I think earlier this month. It has got to be rebuilt because it is being looked after by Parks Victoria. The question is: how much will that cost and when will the works be undertaken?
