(Continued from 7 February 2023.) The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Energy and Mining The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (16:44): I would like to thank the house for its consideration of this reliability instrument and to thank the opposition for the time-honoured support of South Australia as a lead legislator in these matters, and of course I thank my parliamentary colleagues for their support. I commend the bill to the house and hope it has a speedy passage. I also commend the shadow minister for agreeing to the speedy passage of this legislation. It is a difficult burden on this parliament that we are the lead legislator not only for electricity and gas but also for transport, which means that a lot of the time of the house is taken up with the affairs of the nation rather than just the affairs of the state. It is important that we have good, cooperative, bipartisan support for this bill. For that, I thank the house and I thank members who have participated in the debate. I commend the bill to the house. Bill read a second time. Third Reading Third Reading The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Energy and Mining The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (16:45): I move: That this bill be now read a third time. Bill read a third time and passed.
