House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Country Road Speed Limits Country Road Speed Limits Mr BELL House of Assembly Mount Gambier Country Road Speed Limits Mr BELL (Mount Gambier) (15:05): My question is to the Minister for Regional Development. Does the minister support the Labor government's push to lower speed limits to 100 km/h on country roads? The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I am not sure that the minister to whom the question is directed has any responsibility to the house for that, but, Minister for Transport. The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Minister for Housing and Urban Development The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:06): Thank you, Mr Speaker. As members might be aware, the responsibilities for managing the roads in terms of infrastructure and the policies around what occurs on those roads, such as speed limits, is shared between the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure and the Minister for Road Safety, so it is not perhaps fair or relevant that that question is put to the Minister for Regional Development. I am aware that there are a lot of concerns from regional communities about proposals to change speed limits, and I know that this is something that the Minister for Road Safety is giving active consideration to, so I will seek some further advice from him, the minister in the other place, and come back to the house with a response.
