Water and Sewerage Charges

The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (15:18): Thank you, Mr President. My question is to the Minister for Water and the River Murray. Will the minister give an assurance that the three month old problem of the 660 per cent increase in water and sewerage rates for the residents of the Lutheran Homes retirement village at Montague Road, Para Vista will be fixed well before 30 June 2015?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:19): As I have said in this place previously, we are working on this problem. It is a policy issue that crosses several agencies, and it's one that we are trying to resolve with some haste.
