          <by role="member" id="605">The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (15:24):</by>  My question is directed to the Minister for Police. Does the minister agree with the statement made by the state Treasurer, who said publicly, 'Mobile blackspots are not about emergency services response. They are two different issues.'?</text>

MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:25):</by>  I thank the honourable member, Mr Lucas, for his question. I am not familiar with the Treasurer's specific remarks that are referred to, so I am more than happy to take that on notice.</text>
        <text id="2016020992beb4ad0719438ca0000253">What I will say is that blackspots is an area that directly contributes to the undermining of road safety in South Australia, and this government is very committed and remains committed to ensuring that we are putting funding in place, where appropriate to do so, to address where blackspots occur to ensure that we invest to make our roads safer. But I am more than happy to familiarise myself with the specific remarks referred to and provide an answer on notice.</text>
