Port Pirie, Blood Lead Levels

The Hon. R.A. SIMMS (14:44): A further supplementary: will the minister be advocating to his colleagues the Minister for Environment and Water and the Minister for Energy and Mining to reduce the lead levels in the area, and is he advocating for more water to be available to reduce the proliferation of dust?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:44): This government, as I said, is taking a collaborative approach. The Targeted Lead Abatement Program is a multiportfolio response. We have certainly been discussing it a number of times, including recently as a result of the independent review, and all of the factors are balanced in consultation with my cabinet colleagues.
