Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Firstly, I would like to point out to the minister that clearly the Prime Minister did not see water as a priority, because he did not even mention it in his speech. I would like to clarify: does the water minister endorse the comments of the South Australian Premier that doubling the desalination plant will mean Adelaide will no longer have water restrictions? Given the drying climate, is this a responsible comment to be making?
