I've heard the Matthews (own the Belair Hotel, Stirling Hotel etc) now have control of it, and are refurbishing.

All good, wasn't aware of those details, be interesting if it is reopening, as it's been closed for a while.

The Matthews family/group own numerous hotels throughout SA. Including the Buckingham arms, Mansfield park, and 3 in Mount Gambier.

The Stirling hotel is 1 of 3 owned by 1 of the Matthews.. not the group

I wonder what measures were put in place at the nRAH site after the unfortunate death of the worker there 15 months ago?

Clearly Safework SA is in there to investigate another tragic accident, the loss of another life on the site. 2 in under 2 years.

Some questions need answering.

They were talking about it on radio this morning
The first death was when raising and only one operator
They then brought in a dual operation rule
Apparently,they were going down a corridor with two people operating it and the unfortunate man got jammed in the door frame

How many cars have proximity sensors on them nowadays? Surely a scissor lift could have the same device installed to ensure ( as far as reasonably practicable ) that this doesn't occur again.

Go to work on a Saturday to put food on the table, don't come home. Terribly sad for all involved.

The surviving operator is naturally shattered, they had apparently passed under this door frame numerous times that day without incident which leads to the lift malfunctioning at a critical moment

This is your field so you know more about this than me
The union guy said on radio these scissor lifts don't have sensors on them
Did it malfunction if it didn't have a sensor?
(Maybe we shouldn't be talking about it......)

Just looked it up, 14 people died in work place incidents in 2015. 14.

14 too many.

Is it an offence if a cyclist uses their mobile phone to take a photo whilst stopped at traffic lights?

It is if you are in a car, so i cant see how this would be any different. Though im unsure what constitutes "pulling over to the side of the road" on a bike. If the bike was out of traffic on the side of the road then no idea
