Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Sandmining Sandmining The Hon. I.K. HUNTER Legislative Council Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:18): If I could have the indulgence of the house in relation to an answer I gave to the Hon. Mr Ridgway earlier today in question time about West Beach and sand, it is possible that honourable members may have inferred from my answer that pocket beaches were referenced in the Adelaide's Living Beaches strategy which I did refer to in my answer. I am advised that in fact pocket beaches formed a part of a range of measures that was considered when the strategy was developed but they were not part of, or adopted as part of, the strategy. I am further advised that the document the Hon. Mr Ridgway was referring to was published in June 2004 and I think the last paragraph there was: A small-scale planned retreat of the foreshore, pocket beaches and/or rock embankments are also options that could be considered either separately or in conjunction with other ideas. That document was put out, as I said, in June 2004. The Adelaide's Living Beaches strategy supersedes that document, and I encourage the member to look that up. I am sure you can download it from the web; if not, I will find you a copy and that will explain the issue of pocket beaches. They were considered but not adopted. They don't form part of the Adelaide's Living Beaches strategy which I referred to in my answer, and I am also advised that my rough-and-ready description of a pocket beach is accurate enough.
