TORRENS LAKE

Ms SANDERSON (Adelaide) (14:59): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. For how long will the Torrens Lake be lowered and exposed on each of the six occasions the department plans to lower it? A letter sent by the minister's department to Rowing SA on 1 March states:

To improve safety and efficiency during the construction period, we have requested approval from the Adelaide City Council to lower the river level [by] approximately 400 millimetres on about six occasions.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:00): I will get details back to the house forthwith.
