House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Road Safety Road Safety Mr ELLIS House of Assembly Narungga Road Safety Mr ELLIS (Narungga) (15:10): My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport. Can the minister advise about any delays— Mr Malinauskas interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The leader! Mr ELLIS House of Assembly Mr ELLIS: —at the Regency Park vehicle inspection facility? With your leave, and that of the house, I will explain further. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order, the leader and the Premier! I am listening carefully to the member for Narungga. The member for Narungga has sought leave to introduce facts. Is leave granted? Leave granted. Mr ELLIS House of Assembly Mr ELLIS: Mike from Dublin Motors has been taking vehicles for inspection for years but has found this year that the wait has extended beyond what he considers reasonable and recently made a booking at the first available opportunity, being in late December. The Hon. C.L. WINGARD House of Assembly Gibson Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Recreation The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (15:11): I will take the substance of that question on notice and get some more detail back to the member, but what I can say is that I am led to believe that through COVID, of course, there have been some restrictions put in place. Some anecdotal stories that come back to me are that a number of people here in South Australia who have perhaps got vehicles and who have been travelling back and forth across the border that might otherwise be registered in other states have actually looked to register their vehicles here. We know that there are a number of people who are moving across South Australia as well because of the great job we have done through COVID, so I can maybe put it down to that as well if that is the case. I will certainly have a look at that. There may be some COVID implications as well as to the process that goes through there out at Regency Park. I am very happy to take that on notice and get more detail for the member to try to help his constituent get through that process as quickly as possible. It is something that we look to do at every turn, but road safety, of course, is something that is paramount as well, so we have to make sure all the vehicles on our roads are as safe as possible, but for more detail I will take it on notice.
