I draw the minister’s attention to the proposal by LandCorp to include a dual-water reticulation system in the new Lakeside residential development at Kununurra and ask - (1) Does the Government support the proposed dual-water reticulation system; and, if not, why not? (2) Will it be a requirement that the non-potable water be treated before it can be used on gardens; and, if so, why? (3) What is the anticipated pricing structure for potable and not-potable water in the development? Hon NICK GRIFFITHS
