Site Contamination, Hendon Area

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (15:15): Arising from the minister's answer, is that 1 August date the first time that the minister was advised about this issue?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:15): I said in my answer the 1 August date was in relation to this specific site communication. In relation to the specific communication to Hendon, I received a briefing from the EPA on Friday 1 August advising they would be communicating with residents today. I also advised the house earlier in a number of my replies that the EPA has been keeping me advised of the processing in this area of Hendon all the way through this process. As I said, this is the fifth communication to the residents of Hendon and it will not be the last.

The PRESIDENT: Supplementary, the Hon. Ms Lensink.
