Water Quality

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (14:59): Supplementary: can the minister advise whether he understands he is responsible for his agency setting the health requirements?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:59): Sorry?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER: Can the minister advise whether he understands that it is his agency and his legislation that sets the health requirements that SA Water has to comply with?

The Hon. S.G. WADE: I am certainly happy to take the honourable member's question on notice in terms of whether they have any concerns in relation to water quality management. Considering that SA Health and SA Water have a longstanding cooperative relationship, I am sure that any concerns would have been communicated directly.
