The New South Wales Government has been asked to fully explain why the master and crew members of the Manly ferry Collaroy were not properly drug and alcohol tested after Monday's crash at Circular Quay in Sydney.

State Transport Minister John Watkins has admitted to the bungle in Parliament, despite telling a Budget Estimates hearing on Tuesday night that all the crew had been tested after the accident.

Mr Watkins says he was given incorrect advice about what testing had been carried out.
The Minister has sacked Sydney Ferries' chairman Matthew Taylor and safety manager Robert Formisari over the incident.

The ferry's master and three deckhands were not properly tested, even though the Government and Sydney Ferries' board and chief executive officer had been lead to believe they had.

NSW Opposition transport spokesman Barry O'Farrell says the episode has not been properly explained.

"We clearly need to know exactly what went on in an organisation which is not particularly large, in which you would assume communication lines should be better," he said.

Mr O'Farrell says the incident highlights the need for an independent safety regulator that reports to Parliament, not just the Minister.

"Until you have an independent transport safety regulator reporting directly to Parliament, as does the ICAC, the Audit Office and the Ombudsman, you're going to end up with these sorts of situations because that person will not going to be frank and fearless in their advice," he said.
A spokesman for the Minister says the safety regulator will look into all the circumstances surrounding the breakdown in safety procedures.
