TRAM DERAILMENT

Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (15:10): My question is to the Minister for Transport. Was there a serious incident on the King William Street tramline approximately half an hour before the Melbourne Cup Day tram derailment; and, if so, has a record of the event or investigation been made?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy) (15:10): The honourable member would probably have to give me more detail than that. I do not have any knowledge of it, but what I would say is that, if the honourable member alleges it, I will check it very carefully.
