          <by role="member" id="4363">The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:05):</by>  My question is for the Leader of the Government in this place. Will the minister update the council on the six-month-long industry-wide compliance campaign for the safety of elevating work platforms, aka scissor lifts, that finished three months ago?</text>

          <by role="member" id="605">The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:06):</by>  I have a briefing in the office in relation to the six-month what SafeWork SA has referred to as an audit of, or compliance activity of, the use of elevating work platforms. I think I have said publicly before at some stage the number of prohibition notices and improvement notices that were issued, or else it has been reported publicly, so I am happy to take the detail of the honourable member's question and bring back a reply.</text>
        <text id="2019091089c4fcc986e140b480000250">There was a significant number of improvement notices and prohibition notices as a result of that, and I think my office has been advised that SafeWork SA intends, as you would expect them, an ongoing compliance activity, albeit not at the same level as during the six-month audit. I am happy to take the member's question on notice and bring back a reply.</text>
