Site Contamination, Clovelly Park and Mitchell Park

Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:19): Further supplementary.

The SPEAKER: First supplementary.

Mr MARSHALL: Thank you, sir. Supplementary to the Minister for Local Government. When was local government notified of air contamination rising above acceptable levels at Clovelly Park?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:19): I did start to stand up previously but I wasn't quite quick enough. I think what is important is that we get the full details of the information and how it has been communicated to the public. I will come back with an answer about the communication with local government, but what we know is that the people affected have been doorknocked and visited personally. We also know that an information session will be held, as was in the ministerial statement. In terms of direct communication with the council, I will endeavour to get an answer for you.
