A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business, Minister for Automotive Transformation) (15:00): I'll do it. Members interjecting: The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: All negotiations with the commonwealth government regarding funding are done through the Treasurer. I will have negotiations with Treasurer Hockey. In terms of road funding, other ministers will have their appropriate discussions with their federal counterparts. As we wait for the May budget, we will see what the commonwealth does. We will see what Mr Hockey delivers for South Australia and, indeed, what our federal South Australian Liberal ministers deliver for South Australia to which, no doubt, we will hold them to account. So we will wait with eagerness to see what they deliver for South Australians in their funding.
