On 2 May 2013, the Adelaide Advertiser carried a headline 'Nuclear energy will come on tap' and reported that I had 'thrown' my 'support behind developing a nuclear energy industry in Australia'. I did not. My address to the South Australian Resources and Energy Investment Conference on 1 May has been seriously misrepresented. I made optimistic and supportive comments about the mining industry in Australia with specific reference to South Australia and uranium mining, and they have been misrepresented by the Adelaide Advertiser.
