Water Allocation Plans

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): I have a supplementary question. It isn't actually the bank: it's Primary Industries that has said in relation to eligibility for a Drought Concessional Loan that the landowner was not able to use the water licence that was issued by the government of some 1,200 megalitres for security for a Drought Concessional Loan. So it's not the bank: it is actually a government agency.

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change) (14:32): If it is the government agency PIRSA, which is not part of my portfolio responsibilities, I will undertake to take that question on notice and ask my agency to question PIRSA about its requirements. However, as I say, it may well pertain in exactly the same way: if the water is not portable, if the water has to be reduced in a region, for example, there may be very good reasons why it can't be used for that purpose. But I undertake to take that question on notice and bring back a response.
