Renewable Energy Target

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:10): Supplementary: can the Treasurer outline to the house how long this program, this policy, was in place, when it began, and when it was actually removed?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy) (14:10): I understand that three wind farms took advantage of the construction, paying out just about $300,000 in payroll tax deductions. I shall compare that to the amount of subsidies paid to renewable energy from 2013 to 2016 by the commonwealth Liberal government. We will compare.

Mr GARDNER: Point of order: the Treasurer was ignoring the substance of the question.
