SA Water

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (15:07): In relation to an earlier question that I took on notice from the Hon. John Dawkins about SA Water's billing practices in regards to cheque payments for bills, I am advised that SA Water's financial transaction service is provided by the Commonwealth Bank, which is moving its financial services to a centralised processing arrangement. I am also advised that this is a banking industry initiative for centralised processing, and other financial institutions are doing the same thing.
