ROAD SAFETY 30 MARCH 2021

Mr DULUK ( Waite ) ( 15:18 ): My question is to the Minister for Road Safety. Minister, what measures is the government undertaking to combat reckless and dangerous hoon driving that is increasing in our community? Sir, with your leave and that of the house, I will further explain.

   Leave granted.

Mr DULUK: Many constituents visit my office concerned with dangerous driving on Kalyra Road, Belair Road, Old Belair Road, James Road and other road passages throughout Mitcham and the Adelaide Hills. SA Police statistics from 2020 record 3,174 drivers were caught travelling at least 30 kilometres above the limit, including 637 clocked speeding 45 kilometres or more above the speed limit. What is the state government doing to counter these troubling stats and provide greater safety on the roads in my community?

Member for Waite: My question is to the Premier.

Is the government still committed to delivering surgery at the Repat Health Precinct and, if so, when will we know who the preferred surgery provider is and the time frames on the necessary construction of surgery suites?

2 February 2021

Mr DULUK: Thank you, sir. My question is to the Premier. Can the Premier please update the house on the progress of the government's pilot to trial the use of medical cannabis to treat children with epilepsy, and what is the expected time frame for the rollout of that pilot? Sir, with your leave and that of the house, I will further explain.

Mr DULUK (Waite) (14:52): My question is to the Minister for Emergency Services. Can the minister please update the house on the rollout of the automatic vehicle location tracking systems to support our emergency services volunteers when they are fighting bushfires in our communities? Sir, with your leave and that of the house, I will further explain.

  [Leave granted.]

Mr DULUK: In July last year, the independent review into the South Australian 2019-20 bushfire season was handed down to the parliament. There was a $20 million investment as part of that review, and one recommendation concerned the importance of automatic vehicle location tracking systems. In conversations with my CFS group and brigades in my community over the weekend including Upper Sturt in your brigade, sir we are still waiting for that rollout with our community. We would appreciate an update from the minister as to when that will happen.

2 December 2020

Mr DULUK (Waite) (15:16): My question is to the Attorney-General. Attorney, what measures are you undertaking to ensure that the Coroner's office is appropriately resourced to reduce the backlog on the issuance of Forensic Science South Australia post-mortem reports? With your leave and that of the house, sir, I will further explain.

Mr DULUK: Recently, a constituent contacted my office and expressed her concern and distress at waiting more than 17 months to receive a final death certificate for her late husband.

26 November 2020

Mr DULUK: I refer to Budget Paper 4, Volume 3, page 16, row three, Repatriation Health Precinct Reactivation. Minister, how much funding in this year's budget has been allocated to surgery services at the Repat? What is the time frame for surgery to return to the Repat precinct? Have any preferred private providers been identified for the project, or has SA Health had any difficulties in sourcing preferred surgery providers for the Repat site?

24 November 2020

Mr DULUK: Minister, same budget paper, page 159, also in regard to Service SA. You are obviously talking about the road map. Can you guarantee that the new road map will not result in any shopfront services or staffing reduction at the Modbury, Prospect and, indeed, the Mitcham Service SA centres, even if they do happen to have lease renewals at other sites within those suburbs?

24 November 2020

Mr DULUK: Thank you for your indulgence, Mr Chair; much appreciated. Minister, I refer you to Budget Paper 4, Volume 2, page 156. What is the time line for the rollout of the Wittunga master plan, especially around the completion of the nature playground, and the move of state flora to Wittunga from Belair National Park?

24 November 2020

Mr DULUK: Minister, what work has been done on the Cross Road planning study? When will it be completed? When will it be released and what safety improvements at Claremont and Fullarton Road are going to be included in that safety study and planning study?

24 November 2020

Mr DULUK: Minister, I refer to Budget Paper 4, Volume 3, page 155, the Automatic Train Protection (ATP) system on the Belair line. Minister, can you explain what was done in terms of the ATP on the Belair line? Was the target met?
