South East Drainage Network Community Panel

In reply to the Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (26 March 2015).

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Climate Change): The Minister for Water and the River Murray has received the following advice:

1. & 2. On Saturday 28 March 2016, I travelled to Naracoorte to attend the final meeting of the South East Drainage Network Community Panel. I note there were approximately 50 people in attendance.

At the meeting I discussed its recommendations and discussed their experiences as members of the Community Panel.

The report of the Community Panel was tabled in Parliament, along with the government's response, on 29 July 2015.

The South East Drainage Board is continuing to work with the South East community to partner with other organisations to leverage funds to further invest in the network.

The South East Drainage Network is an asset which benefits private landholders and the general public of the South-East, and as such, the government's believes that maintenance should be met through both public and private investment.

The state government is dedicated to the continuing maintenance and operation of the South East Drainage Network, on behalf of the broader South Australian community, with an annual commitment of $2.2 million.
