MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:52):</by>  I have not received any advice suggesting that mobile phone coverage throughout metropolitan Adelaide has failed at any point, and thus far the machinery that relies on mobile phone coverage within MFS vehicles has continued to operate as planned. So, there has been no failure, despite people opposite salivating over the idea of things going wrong within our emergency services, which I think is utterly shameful—nothing along those lines has occurred whatsoever. Furthermore, the Government Radio Network systems still exist, I am advised, within MFS trucks and vehicles, in any event.</text>
