NOARLUNGA RAILWAY LINE

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:47): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Will diesel services be operating on the Seaford line at the same time as electric trains when the electric train services begin early next year?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:47): I imagine that they would, and I imagine that we would have as many services as possible. I hope that we are inundated with people who want to use public transport, and we will do as much as we possibly can to cater for them. If there are any operational reasons why we cannot, I will come back to the house and let the member know.
