House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, First Session (54-1) 54 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Port Augusta Power Stations Port Augusta Power Stations The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Port Augusta Power Stations The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:04): My question is to the Minister for Energy. Has the minister received any advice from his agency, or any external agency, that the government's decision to privatise or lease the government's emergency generators will have any impact on the construction of the solar thermal plant at Port Augusta, and its capacity, and AGL's project of Barker Inlet at Torrens Island? The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly Stuart Minister for Energy and Mining Port Augusta Power Stations The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (15:04): Just to be really clear, have I received advice from my agency that our intention to lease the diesel generators will have an impact on SolarReserve or AGL continuing with their solar thermal plant at Port Augusta or the Barker Inlet stage 1? Is that the question? No, I don't think I have. I will check. Because, like the former minister for energy used to do, a question like that does deserve checking in case there's something like that rattling around in the background that you haven't seen or are not aware of or don't remember. No, I do not think so. I will check and if my answer is incorrect I will advise the house.
