Question Time

SA Water Reconciliation Action Plan

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:20): I understand that a question was asked of the Leader of the Government by the Hon. Kelly Vincent yesterday on the number of SA Water Aboriginal employees. As of today, I understand that 1.66 per cent of SA Water employees identify as being Aboriginal. I understand also that SA Water has three new Aboriginal employees set to commence, with contracts to be signed shortly. This will increase the number to 1.85 per cent of staff.
