South Road Tram Overpass

Mr PISONI (Unley) (15:05): Thank you, sir. I am not quite sure that the minister understood my question, and I'm not blaming him, but it may be—

The SPEAKER: The member for Unley will not make an impromptu speech: he will ask a question from this moment on.

Mr PISONI: Certainly. I shall try it again. Can the minister advise if the final design for the original bikeway was signed off by the Department of Planning, Transport and Infrastructure, the original design?

The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (15:06): As the member for Unley would know, all capital projects with a value above $4 million go through a particular process. It obviously has to be approved by cabinet and then it goes to the parliamentary works committee. The design was not only included within the government's internal documentation but the design was specifically included in the documentation that was considered and endorsed by the parliament's Public Works Committee in September 2008.
