Mark Butler (Port Adelaide, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Environment, Climate Change and Water) | Hansard source

Thank you, Speaker. In question time today the Prime Minister said, 'The member for Port Adelaide said residential load shedding was required'. In my question I said no such thing. I said that power was cut to households in the electorates of Bennelong, Reid and Robertson. It is a fact supported by tweets on 10 February—last Friday—by Ausgrid, the network operator, confirming that power was cut to 1,200 customers in Narara, power was cut to Burwood in Reid, and power was cut in Ryde, Marsfield and North Ryde in Bennelong.
