          <by role="member" id="546">Mr WILLIAMS (MacKillop—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:29):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Energy. Did minister Foley consult the Minister for Energy before he announced his support for nuclear power, and does the Minister for Energy agree that it is time for nuclear power in South Australia?</text>
