Statutes Amendment (Barossa Rail Corridor) Bill

Second Reading

Adjourned debate on second reading.

(Continued from 17 March 2021.)

The ACTING SPEAKER (Mr Pederick): The member for Schubert?

Mr KNOLL: I have spoken, but can I seek a point of clarification, Mr Acting Speaker. Can we put the motion in the absence of the mover?

The ACTING SPEAKER (Mr Pederick): A point of clarification has been raised by the member for Schubert. We are just checking whether the bill can be moved in the absence of the mover.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: Sir, I draw your attention to the state of the house.

A quorum having been formed:

The ACTING SPEAKER (Mr Pederick): If the member speaks, he closes debate.

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light) (11:28): I would like to just thank those members who have spoken on the bill. It would not be strange to know that I do not agree with some of the views expressed by those across the chamber but, that said, the bill does have support in the Barossa Valley. The people I have been speaking with who have been part of the task force certainly support it, right across a number of industry organisations and also the two councils, both Gawler and the Barossa councils.

It is interesting that in more recent times since this bill has come up, it has been speculated that the reason the government are so keen to knock off this bill is that they propose to actually further do damage to it. With those comments, I commend the bill.
