Road Safety

Mr WINGARD (Mitchell) (15:56): A supplementary to the Minister for Road Safety: can I get a clarification as to when you received that report after the initial fatality in 2010 and when you read the report before the two more fatalities in 2014? I would like the date and the times from the minister.

The Hon. A. PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:56): I became Minister for Road Safety last year, so I certainly wasn't in 2010 when the report was prepared. Since that time, the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure and I have received a series of advice from the department based on current research, current technology, etc. The report you referred to was brought to my attention last week.
