Ceduna Water Storage Facilities

In reply to Mr BASHAM (Finniss) (25 June 2025). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. N.D. CHAMPION (Taylor—Minister for Housing and Urban Development, Minister for Housing Infrastructure, Minister for Planning): I have been advised:

The Ceduna Supply System project is tracking to schedule, with pipe and tank construction both well progressed.

The $16 million allocation in FY 2025-26 covers the completion of construction of both pipe and tank, as well as the provision of power supply and security at the tank site.

In FY 2024-25, a significant portion of the 12-kilometre pipe was laid between the tank site and the township, and construction of the tank base was commenced. It is expected that the balance of construction of all components will be completed in FY 2025-26.
