KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (14:55):</by>  I have a great deal of sympathy for people who require mobility devices, and there are a lot of things we need to sort out in the legalisation of these devices, especially around insurance and other matters. That is progressing very, very quickly as part of our passenger transport review. I hope to have something ready for the parliament and the cabinet relatively soon, and as soon as that's ready to go I will brief the opposition and get back to the house quickly.</text>
