But top marks for mischievous politics has to go to the 50-year lease agreement for 64 hectares of the historic Point Nepean Quarantine Station made in the last hours of the government.

There was no press conference, no media release, no vision of the Premier shaking hands with the winning proponent, just a quiet posting on the department's website first sighted Wednesday morning.

The lease covers all the buildings and "public areas including the existing car parks, the Parade Ground, Wombat Oval and Jarman Oval".

There is no mention of the cost of the lease or what happens if the developer goes broke? Does the taxpayer pick up the pieces?

And here is the kicker, the 50-year lease may be terminated if geothermal water tests do not support the commercial hot springs planned for the site.
