School Pedestrian Crossing Safety

The Hon. D.G. PISONI (Unley) (15:29): My question is to the Minister for Infrastructure and Transport. Has the minister requested a department response to my letter dated 9 November 2023? With your leave, sir, I will explain the question.

Leave granted.

The Hon. D.G. PISONI: In my letter, I asked the minister to consider a number of suggestions to improve driver awareness and safety at pedestrian crossings adjacent schools on Unley and Goodwood Roads.

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Energy and Mining) (15:29): I start by apologising to the member for not responding to his letter sooner. I pride myself on trying to get back to members of parliament as quickly as possible. I prioritise their letters and I know that my office has a protocol in place that when the shadow minister or any member of this house writes to me, I attempt to prioritise their letters quickly. So first and foremost, I am sorry that you haven't received a response. I will chase that up immediately. It seems like a very sensible suggestion. I don't know why you haven't received a response.
