Upon the dissolution of the Legislative Assembly the Travelsafe Committee was subsequently disbanded.
Functions of the committee - Travelsafe Committee
The Travelsafe Committee was a select committee established by resolution of the House. The committee examined all aspects of road safety and public transport and, in particular, had the responsibility to monitor, investigate and report on:
- issues affecting road safety including the causes of road crashes and measures aimed at reducing deaths, injuries and economic costs to the community;
- the safety of passenger transport services, and measures aimed at reducing the incidence of related deaths and injuries; and
- measures for the enhancement of public transport in Queensland and reducing dependence on private motor vehicles as the predominant mode of transport.
