The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (14:39): I have a supplementary question. Can the minister match his 6.8 per cent against the over 500 per cent—

The Hon. I.K. Hunter: It is 6.4.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK: —6.4; I am sorry, minister—over the 500 per cent increase in the tier 1 price since Labor took office?

The Hon. I.K. HUNTER (Minister for Sustainability, Environment and Conservation, Minister for Water and the River Murray, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:39): The reality is that consumers are faced with, in the last financial year, a 6.4 per cent reduction in the price of water and an increase of no more than the CPI in the next two years.
