I refer the Member to Question Without Notice 126 and the response supplied by the Premier. Since individual Directors General of Departments are responsible for compliance with legislation in relation to the use of hand held mobile phones in motor vehicles for work purposes, collation of more detailed information would pose an unreasonable administrative burden.
