FORBES PRIMARY SCHOOL

In reply to Mr PISONI (Unley) (24 February 2011).

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Minister for Education, Minister for Early Childhood Development, Minister for Science and Information Economy): I am advised that the Department of Education and Children's Services was told by the Environment Protection Authority about the possibility of contamination on the morning of Monday 21 February 2011. The school community was advised shortly thereafter and they ceased using the bore until tests could be undertaken.

These tests have been undertaken and confirm that the bore is not implicated in any contamination. I became aware of the possibility on that same Monday morning when cabinet was advised.
