(2) As I stated in my Ministerial Statement, the minimum crewing metric has not commonly been used by ambulance services, including ACTAS. Performance is measured by response times and patient satisfaction. The ACTAS deployment matrix has, however, been reviewed to be more dynamic and flexible document than previous. It details variations in the number and location of ambulance resources, according to known patterns of demand. This will allow a more informed and appropriate crewing model, based on predicted need, rather than just an arbitrary crew number across the whole of the week. This matrix will be reviewed periodically using updated case data, to ensure it aligns with patterns of demand.
(3) The following information can be provided in relation to the 30 shifts which fell below the current minimum crew level between 1 July 2018 and 31 October 2018:

Roads—Mount Taylor parking
(Question No 2071)
Mrs Jones asked the Minister for Roads, upon notice, on 30 November 2018:
(1) What changes will be made to the entry and exit to the car park at Mount Taylor upon the completion of the car park.
(2) What barriers or signs, if any, will be put in place to ensure that cars do not turn right across double unbroken lines.
(3) Can the Minister provide a copy of the site plans for these works.
Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) The entry and exit to the Mount Taylor parking area opposite Mannheim Street have been formalised and moved approximately 150m away from the intersection. Moving the parking area access and egress away from the Mannheim Street intersection separates the conflict points and so improves safety.
(2) A barrier kerb has been provided to prevent movements other than via the formalised access and egress points.
(3) Yes, see attached.
(A copy of the attachment is available at the Chamber Support Office).
