Adelaide Desalination Plant

A supplementary question put forward to the The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) regarding Adelaide Desalination Plant.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (15:22): I have a supplementary question. What is the population that the minister says the desalination plant is required for; the number, in millions?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:22): As I understand it, the Adelaide desalination plant water delivery will provide water for half of Adelaide's population.
