Bore Water Testing

In reply to Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (18 July 2014). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. J.J. SNELLING (Playford—Minister for Health, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts, Minister for Health Industries): I have been advised:

SA Health does not undertake testing of bore water. SA Health recommends that owners of bores ensure the water is fit for the purpose the water is being used, which may require testing at the owner's expense. SA Health has no information on how many bores have been tested.
