House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time State Emergency Management Plan State Emergency Management Plan Mr MARSHALL House of Assembly Dunstan Leader of the Opposition State Emergency Management Plan Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:20): Supplementary: can the minister confirm that there has not been an evacuation plan documented in the past, and can the minister shed any light on the issue about how the police would communicate this plan should there be another statewide electricity blackout? The Hon. C.J. PICTON House of Assembly Kaurna Minister for Police Minister for Correctional Services Minister for Emergency Services Minister for Road Safety Minister Assisting the Minister for Health Minister Assisting the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse State Emergency Management Plan The Hon. C.J. PICTON (Kaurna—Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety, Minister Assisting the Minister for Health, Minister Assisting the Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse) (14:20): I will certainly take on notice what the arrangements were in the past— Members interjecting: The Hon. C.J. PICTON House of Assembly The Hon. C.J. PICTON: In terms of what the previous arrangements were, I will have to take it on notice. I am much more concerned with the fact that we do have such a plan now that the police would be ready to use. The final plan will be finalised by the end of this year. The police are absolutely confident, by talking to the commissioner, that they would use this plan if an event were to happen today. I think the people of South Australia can be reassured that our emergency services are well equipped to deal with a significant emergency in this state. They are well equipped to deal with a whole range of different threats that could happen to our city, and they are well equipped to deal with an evacuation scenario that might happen. Mr Marshall House of Assembly Mr Marshall: Supplementary, sir. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Before the supplementary is asked, I call to order the members for Unley and Finniss and I warn for the first time the member for Unley, the leader and the deputy leader. Leader.
