In reply to Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (7 October 2010).
The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): I have been advised:
The expenditure on bridge maintenance and rehabilitation varies from year to year depending upon the level of investing expenditure on rehabilitation and replacement in any one year. Funds for bridge maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement are allocated from a number of investing and operation budget lines including specific investing project allocations, the Transport System Responsiveness program and other minor works programs as well as operating allocations for periodic and routine maintenance.
