Solar Panels
The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (14:51): My question is to the Minister for Energy and Mining. Is it true that the minister only became aware of substandard solar panels after questions from Channel 7 journalist Mike Smithson? With your leave, and that of the house, sir, I will explain.
Leave granted.
The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Channel 7's Mike Smithson revealed that solar panels installed on the home the minister held a press conference at were noncompliant with his own VPP tender.
The Hon. D.C. VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart—Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:51): No, that's not true. I am sorry to disappoint the shadow, but that is not true. I actually was informed by somebody else.
