Leave granted.

MR CORBELL: I am pleased to present to the Assembly the government’s response to the Standing Committee on Planning, Environment and Territory and Municipal Services report on the inquiry into vulnerable road users. On 9 May last year the Assembly referred the issue of vulnerable road users to that standing committee for inquiry and report by the last sitting day in April this year. That was later extended to the last sitting day of June.

The government made a submission to the committee. I appeared before the committee on 28 April this year, and the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services also appeared before the committee. The committee received 54 submissions, including submissions from Pedal Power, the Amy Gillett Foundation, the Motorcycle Riders Association, NRMA Motoring & Services, the ACT Law Society, ANCAP, and the Council on the Ageing. The committee held seven public hearings and heard from 36 witnesses.
