Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Clamping and Impounding Laws Clamping and Impounding Laws The Hon. M.C. PARNELL Legislative Council Clamping and Impounding Laws The Hon. M.C. PARNELL (15:07): Supplementary: in relation to the public crushing of hoon vehicles, are they really public crushings? Was it advertised? Can you buy tickets somewhere? You mentioned about four times that it was a public crushing. I don't recall ever seeing any notice inviting me along. Are they seriously public crushings or is it simply just a media event? The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS Legislative Council Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety Clamping and Impounding Laws The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:08): Thank you to the honourable member for his question. If the honourable member is particularly interested in attending the next crushing, I will try to facilitate an invitation. The event was held yesterday at a facility which has the equipment to do the crushing. It was very much public, as was evidenced by the presence of the media. The media widely broadcast the event generally. If there are members within this place who are keen to witness the next crushing, I am happy to facilitate their attendance. Being a legislator in this place who was present when the legislation was passed, I don't think that's an unreasonable request and I would be more than happy to facilitate it.
