RADIOACTIVE WASTE

The Hon. S.G. WADE (14:32): I seek leave to make an explanation before asking a question of the Minister for State/Local Government Relations about nuclear waste.

Leave granted.

The Hon. S.G. WADE: The Berri Barmera Council has publicly condemned the federal government's plan to truck radioactive waste through the Riverland. Will the minister support proposals by Riverland councils to be declared nuclear free?

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (14:32): Thank you very much for the question. I will take it on notice and get back to you as soon as possible.
