NOARLUNGA RAILWAY LINE

Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (14:31): My question is to the Minister for Transport Services. When it got to the beginning of September—the month the government had promised to reopen the Noarlunga train services after a nine-month closure—did the minister ask the department if services would be reopened?

The Hon. C.C. FOX (Bright—Minister for Transport Services, Minister Assisting the Minister for the Arts) (14:31): I have been consulting with my department on a daily basis about the various different projects that we have going on around the city and the suburbs, about the services that we run on trains, on buses, and on trams. These are ordinary conversations that we have within the course of every single day, so of course I would have discussed these matters over a number of weeks and, indeed, months.
