   Not so, says Steve Dunham, the CLP government's health minister when it lost power in 2001. Mr Dunham would have a strong case to pass the buck to his colleague in charge of DIPE's forerunner, the hands-on agency for the project, Mick Palmer, who lost his seat.

   Mr Dunham says he hasn't got access to the paperwork and Ð amazingly Ð has no clear memory about the circumstances of the budgeting for the refurbishing, and why its was reduced so dramatically. He says some stages may have been deferred. Mr Dunham says he has no doubt that there was a reduction in "scope". "We would not expect the contractor to reduce cost. How price was eventually negotiated I don't know." What he freely admits is that the end result is woeful: "We did lots and lots of works, and I can't think of anything as bad as that." Mr Dunham says the system is not at fault, but some of the people working in it obviously are. Self-certification in the construction industry is a scheme that's worked well in the past and is still in use. But it all depends on the people running it: "Whoever signed the [certification] form is responsible. "They put their professional reputation on line. "They should be pursued over that," says Mr Dunham.

   If Sue Carter and Steve Dunham survive they should look for another job next election.

   One person who has been able to shine throughout the whole confrontation over inner city development has been Steve Dunham, CLP Lands spokesman. He has skillfiully argued the case for 'balanced development'. Most reasonable people take no issue with development as long as they get to have a say and believe their views are genuinely being taken into account. He has presented well at meetings, been very diligent in following up community concerns. While Clare Martin and Chris Burns 'duck' meetings Dunham 'doggedly' attends them all.
