Jetty Repairs

Mr WHETSTONE (Chaffey) (15:09): My question is to the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure. Was the $3.5 million of funding committed to repair jetties across the state, damaged by recent storms, allocated from the boating facilities levy fund?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:09): The allocation of the funds was made to the councils in immediate response to the damage. Certainly, no decision has been made to take it from the boating facilities fund, so we will be looking to fund that elsewhere, rather than from that fund.
