Ms RISHWORTH (Kingston) (13:36): Today I also rise to recognise those in my electorate and right across Adelaide who have been affected by significant flooding in the last 24 hours. Today is not a day for politics but a time to actually think of those over 100 homes in my electorate that have been affected. The school of Old Noarlunga has been shut down and many people wait very nervously in the townships of Old Noarlunga and Port Noarlunga as the water moves down the Onkaparinga river. At this time, there have been close to 800 calls to the SES for assistance, and I would like to pay tribute to all those volunteers, those men and women who have been taking a proactive approach, knocking on doors to actually get people into a safe place.
