SA:Rann says mine bill will be ready
South Australian Premier MIKE RANN says he wants to have legislation before state parliament
next month, giving the go-ahead for the 30 billion dollar expansion of the Olympic Dam
mine.
He insists final negotiations with mining giant BHP Billiton haven't been rushed by
his decision to step down as premier on October 20.
Mr RANN's told Sky News the deal was already 95 per cent done when he was rolled by
his own party, and they're sticking to an agreed timetable.
The outgoing premier says he wants to leave his successor JAY WEATHERILL with a clean slate.
