          <inserted>For Green Industries SA, two Executive terminations (retirements) have occurred between 1 July 2020 and 6 August 2021. The value of termination payments was a gross amount of $218,252 made up of accrued leave entitlements.' For SA Water, Section 17 of the South Australian Water Corporation Act 1994 allows the corporation to appoint the employees it thinks necessary or desirable and on terms and conditions fixed by the corporation. Given this, SA Water uses its own industrial framework for employing staff and no positions at SA Water fall within the SA Executive Service. SA Water's executive structure consists of its senior leadership team (SLT), which comprises its chief executive, a chief financial officer and five general managers. There were no terminations made to SA Water's SLT between 1 July 2020 to 6 August 2021.</inserted>
