Police Stations

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:25): A supplementary: in relation to the minister's answer in which he identified that this was in the purview of the police commissioner himself, the police commissioner has identified that public consultation will take place in these stations, and to members of parliament he has identified up until 7 April but the SAPOL website says 27 March. A number of members of parliament have told their communities about 7 April, so will the minister guarantee that submissions made by members of the public on this public consultation will be accepted until 7 April?

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:26): I will certainly ask the commissioner to do so, if possible. Given that it is an operational matter, it is not my place to direct the commissioner.
