COMMUNITY ROAD SAFETY FUND

387 Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (17 November 2008).

1. Are funds budgeted to be received from SAPOL as an inter-government transfer in 2008-09, held within an account specifically to be used for road safety initiatives?

2. Is this expenditure itemised to indicate how much is spent directly on road safety measures, breath testing and speed cameras?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): The Minister for Road Safety has provided the following information:

Funds are received as an appropriation from the Department of Treasury and Finance and are held in the Community Road Safety Fund and used specifically for road safety initiatives.

Whilst the expenditure in the Community Road Safety Fund is recorded against various programs and projects, it is not specifically reported against categories such as road safety measures, breath testing and speed cameras.
