Water Quality

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:23): A supplementary question. How do you propose the landowner pay for the replacement of his pipes that has to happen every 10 years because of your poor quality? I would suggest to the minister that he should have a good answer, because he is going to Ceduna for a community cabinet shortly and he will get the same questions there.

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:24): As the honourable member should know and would reasonably be expected to know, pipes laid on your own property are your own responsibility.
