Tee Tree Gully Council

100 The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) ().7 September 20227 September 2022). Can the Minister for Climate, Environment and Water advise—

1. How will SA Water calculate the bills of the Tea Tree Gully CWMS customers that are to be transferred to SA Water from 1 July 2023?

2. Will SA Water's approach to calculating the bills differ to the approach of the Tea Tree Gully Council?

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector): The Minister for Climate, Environment and Water has advised:

1. SA Water's methodology for calculating customer sewerage bills for 2022-23 was published in the Government Gazette on Thursday 23 June 2022 and is available on SA Water's website.

2. Yes, SA Water uses a different methodology for billing sewerage customers than that used by the City of Tea Tree Gully. Tea Tree Gully CWMS customers will now be subject to SA Water's statewide pricing structures, which will save the average household hundreds of dollars per year.
