P-PLATE DRIVERS — POWER-TO-WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS
I have a supplementary question. Will the minister provide the opposition with that information so that we can work together to have legislation like other states have on power-to-weight ratios, early in the next sitting of Parliament? Mr R.F. JOHNSON

AnswerView source ↗

I have always wanted to take a bipartisan approach to road safety; there should be no politics in road safety and I think, in the main, there is not. The member for Girrawheen and I share the same views on road safety; we both have a huge commitment to road safety, and I am always happy to work together with the member for Girrawheen as shadow Minister for Road Safety. I am more than happy to work with the member for Girrawheen in this area, which should be non-political, and I will share with her any information I get so that she can brief the opposition party room and the Leader of the Opposition.
