Mr. Sam Waide:

We discussed very specifically one project here today in terms of the 30 km/h default. That is one of the 50 projects over the next four years. Three common themes have been identified in the Government's road safety strategy: data, legislation and funding. I have touched on the funding already. I have not touched on the data and legislation as I am mindful of everyone's time, but there will be challenges, perhaps not necessarily in this particular project on the 30 km/h default, but I accept and respectfully acknowledge that a consultation of sorts will be required for many of the 50 high-impact actions and projects over the next four years. There will be legislative and data challenges. We discussed data briefly in one regard but those are systemic challenges that we all need to be courageous about in terms of what needs to change from a legislative point of view. An example was given about the role of an organisation in the system and what role it plays in the decision-making process. There are complexities.

In response to the Deputy who wants to do things quickly, the sooner we deliver, the sooner we will see reduced collisions, serious injuries and fatalities but it is complex. Some things are more complex than others but data and legislation are two massive challenges that I expect I and others will be back to discuss with the committee.
