HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:56):</by>  The wily, tricksy Liberals over there are putting words into my mouth. What they were doing was setting up SA Water for a long-term privatisation. We know which Liberal government corporatised SA Water, the same Liberal government that sold off ETSA. That is what they are doing; that is what their plan was, and that is what they would do if they ever got into government in South Australia: SA Water would be gone.</text>
