Solid Waste Levy

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:55): Supplementary question: what about fortnightly waste collections?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:55): Again, the honourable member opposite is trying to give me the power over council decision-making, and I thank her sincerely for that, but really what she needs to think about is what is her leader doing. What is Mr Marshall doing when he is saying one thing and doing another? Today he is saying that this is horrendous but, when he was in another position, he said, 'No, this is a brilliant idea. Why doesn't the government do this?' He is lightning fast to talk this state down, lightning fast to dismiss a measure, that he called for himself, that will grow the industry and will grow jobs in this state; now he wants South Australians to forget his earlier position. Like a shonky magician, he says, 'Don't look at what I'm doing here with this hand; look over here at this, bright and shiny.' I think South Australians are a little bit smarter than Mr Marshall gives them credit for.
