The Hon. J.S. LEE (14:48): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Minister for Water and the River Murray questions about the South Australian Water Corporation annual report.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.S. LEE: It was noticed by my colleague in the other place, the member for Chaffey, that the South Australian Water Corporation Annual Report 2014-15 was tabled twice, on two separate occasions. It was first tabled in parliament on 17 November 2015 and then a second time on 9 February 2016. The messages from the chairman and CEO were word for word the same in both annual reports. My questions to the minister are:

1. Why were the 2014-15 annual reports tabled twice?

2. Can the minister explain whether there were any errors made in the initial document tabled in November last year and, if so, what amendments were made to the report tabled in February?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:49): I thank the honourable member for her incredibly important question about typos in annual reports. I can't tell her off the top of my head what change was made, but I understand it was some sort of typographical error. She could either have her very, very incredibly hardworking staff go and check it page for page, if she likes, or I could even ask the SA Water team to advise me what was the typo—whatever she likes.
