Service SA Prospect
The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens) (15:04): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Why has the minister decided to close the Prospect Service SA branch, given it's the third busiest in South Australia?
The Hon. S.K. KNOLL (Schubert—Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Local Government, Minister for Planning) (15:04): To provide, I think, the 10th update to this house on variations on the same question, the closure of those three centres that we have identified has not been done on a frequency of transaction basis. It has been done on a proximity to other Service SA centres basis. In relation to the Prospect Service SA, the Regency Park centre is six kilometres from the Prospect centre and the CBD is 5½ kilometres from the Prospect centre.
The Hon. S.C. Mullighan interjecting:
The SPEAKER: Member for Lee!
The Hon. S.K. KNOLL: We need to provide equity of access on a proximity basis to all metropolitan South Australians, and that's the basis on which the decisions were made.
