House of Assembly Fifty-Second Parliament, Second Session (52-2) 52 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Alcohol-Fuelled Violence ALCOHOL-FUELLED VIOLENCE Ms BEDFORD House of Assembly Florey ALCOHOL-FUELLED VIOLENCE Ms BEDFORD (Florey) (14:26): I have a supplementary question. Could the Premier elaborate on those measures for me? The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL House of Assembly Cheltenham Premier Minister for State Development ALCOHOL-FUELLED VIOLENCE The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Minister for State Development) (14:26): Thank you to the quick-thinking member for Florey. I can say that in addition to the measures concerning CCTVs and the drink marshals— Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL House of Assembly The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL: —we are also proposing that the Liquor and Gambling Commissioner have the opportunity to police these codes. There will also be a consequence for licences. This will become part of the licence, so venues that do not do the right thing will be closed down. I was very gratified to see the police commissioner announce the efforts associated with the new legislative powers that we have given him to bar patrons from premises. There is a substantial increase in the number of barrings that are occurring, and that is an important new tool given to police to assist them to manage behaviour in and around venues. I would like to thank all those who have brought us to this day, to Nat Cook and her Sammy D Foundation, to Doug Lindsley and the efforts he has made. The efforts we are making today and the further things we will do stand testament to the love of these parents for their children. They do not want to see this happen to anyone else. They could have dealt with this in a range of ways, but they are dealing with this issue in the most constructive way possible. Honourable members House of Assembly Honourable members: Hear, hear! The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Thank you. I point out that I will count that as a question rather than as a supplementary, member for Florey. Premier and ministers, if you can keep your answers to four minutes because we do have that sessional order.
