Regional Energy Supply

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:51): My question is to the Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy. How often did the minister personally meet with representatives of the Coober Pedy council in respect of the Energy Developments Ltd project and/or renewing the Remote Areas Energy Supplies (RAES) scheme?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy) (14:51): Once, at their request, I met with the then chief executive—because they have had a number of chief executives over a period of time—I met with Mr Renshaw, I think it was once. I'm not sure when, but I can get that for the member.

The Hon. L.W.K. Bignell: It was in the paper.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Yes, it was in InDaily, and that was the level of my meetings with the Coober Pedy council.
