Burns Review

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:30): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation questions about the Burns review.

Leave granted.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: Recommendation 19 of the Burns review states:

That, giving consideration to the previous recommendation, the Flood Reform Response Working Group identify and consider appropriate agency involvement and protocols for response to and management of dams which are in danger of losing their structural integrity or spilling.

My questions to the minister are:

1. How many dams have been identified by the flood reform response working group as needing agency involvement to prevent loss of structural integrity or spilling?

2. Where are those dams located?

3. What agency involvement has been undertaken in response to the identification of at-risk dams?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:31): I thank the honourable member for the most important question about which dams are specifically being addressed by SA Water. I did go into some detail yesterday in response to a question from the Hon. Jing Lee about SA Water and DEWNR's response to the Burns inquiry. I don't believe I have a list in front of me of the dams that are being looked at by SA Water and DEWNR, so I will have to take that question on notice and bring back a response for the honourable member.
