My supplementary question to the minister is: since June 2009 there have been 63,000 rooftop solar power systems installed in South Australia. In that period the South Australian Office of the Technical Regulator has carried out its inspections on just 50 of those systems. Given the allegations of shoddy workmanship and dangerous wiring of households and the fact that Commonwealth money is supporting the scheme, does the minister believe this level of inspection is adequate?
