Ashwood electorate
[NAME AWAITING VERIFICATION]
Matt FREGON (Ashwood) (14:54): (1063) My constituency question is for the Minister for Public and Active Transport, and in regard to the importance of age restrictions on the use of e-scooters for my constituents in Ashwood I ask the minister: how have these age limits been determined? I recently had the opportunity to meet with the fantastic senior students of Ashburton Primary School when they visited us here in Parliament with Mr Berger from the other place, and one of those students, Eli, stopped me and was talking to me about e-scooters. He wrote to me after that and wants to know why people such as him, being I think in primary school, are restricted from using e-scooters. Eli expressed his concerns over this, and I ask the minister to please get back to us with the information, and I will share it with Eli and his colleagues at my first opportunity.
