I believe it is, but if I am corrected and have misquoted the Senator in any way I am sure he will correct me at a point in the future. One cannot say that we want to get more companies into the country and at the same time say that when a company wins a contract and operates in what we believe to be an efficient and fair manner, it might operate in such a way that would constitute a breach of a contract that it has won honestly and competently. That said, I know all Senators will agree that we want to get to a point at which the roads are even safer than they are, and I am certain that the NCTS plays a very valuable role in that regard.

The changes I have announced in the House, such as the operation of some 24-hour centres and the availability of an additional 150,000 tests across this part of the year compared to where we were a year ago, are important and will deal will the concerns people had. The RSA is doing a very strong and good job in managing an important part of our road safety agenda. I am always available to come in and answer any questions on that or any other points on road safety.
