Ms Fitzharris: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The Light Rail Vehicles (LRV) for Canberra are currently being tested to confirm that they comply with the European Standard for braking on railways, other internationally recognised standards and the design documentation. The European Standards require type testing of the braking at ⅓, ⅔ and maximum speed. Each LRV will be tested in accordance with this Standard and will be required to comply before being used for driver training or service operation.
