Can the minister explain why CFS volunteers are doing traffic management on our major highways when the road is closed due to an accident? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain.</text>

Volunteer CFS crews had to take over traffic management of the road for many hours while the police investigated a serious crash. This is not part of their role as volunteers.</text>

SZAKACS (Cheltenham—Minister for Police, Emergency Services and Correctional Services) (14:38):</by>  I thank the member for his question. I am not familiar with the situation or the incident that he refers to, but I will endeavour to speak to council—I presume it is the Tatiara District Council—and the Department for Infrastructure and Transport, as well as my agencies, and bring an answer back to him as a matter of urgency.</text>
