Recycled Water

In reply to Mr BROWN (Playford) (30 July 2019). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS (Black—Minister for Environment and Water): I have been advised:

The recycled water was tested for a number of health parameters, all of which were shown to be within Australian Drinking Water Guidelines values. SA Health has confirmed that there is no obvious causal link between consumption of recycled water and any report of illness in this instance.

I am advised that SA Health has been in contact with the resident and has advised them to seek medical advice from their GP if they have any concerns. SA Water has also maintained regular contact and have provided the same advice.
