 Mr ATKINSON (Eastern Metropolitan) (13:03): My constituency question is to the Treasurer. I note that the government intends to undertake significant land sales to prop up its budget. I am aware that in Morack Road, Vermont, there is surplus land that has been in the ownership or under the control, effectively, of VicRoads and related road agencies over a period of many years. I am aware that there has been a subdivision suggested for that particular land—a residential subdivision—and I am concerned that the Vermont high school which abuts that land needs further open space, further land, to support its educational activities. So I am seeking an assurance from the minister that in fact any sale of land that might be proposed for that site would allow for additional land to be given to the Vermont high school.
