ALLENBY GARDENS/FLINDERS PARK GROUNDWATER PROHIBITION AREA

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:35): Minister, I asked a whole range of questions and I don't think you have actually answered any of them, so will you undertake to—

The PRESIDENT: You should get to your supplementary question.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: —take them on board and come back with some responses?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:35): I think the other additional questions which were entertained were: is this a first and only situation or are we looking at others? My advice is that we may very well be looking at other sites, but that will be determined on the basis of the evidence.

There was a question asked about what value that may have on the title of properties. I am no expert; I am not a valuer. Perhaps the Hon. Mr Darley can convey some information to us later on, but I would imagine sites that are served by SA Water—a reticulated water system—would not have a huge impact on the value of the property, just because of the existence of bores, whether they are there or not or whether the water can be used. I say that is not personal advice: that is advice of a generic nature and no individual should take that as advice from me in terms of putting up their house for sale.
