 Joe McCRACKEN (Western Victoria) (12:49): My constituency question is for the Minister for Public and Active Transport, and it relates to the Beaufort railway station. Some time ago the car park was upgraded there and CCTV cameras were placed at the precinct, but the problem is that the cameras are only facing the car park. The car park is not heavily used, whereas the station precinct itself houses a number of other community organisations, and there is no coverage of those particular groups and the facilities that they have access to. The problem is that there have been break-ins recently that have meant that a lot of the different assets that those groups use have been vandalised and so forth. So my question is: what will the minister do to solve that problem? Because it is having a real and meaningful impact on the community to a detrimental effect.
