House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Penola Bypass Project Penola Bypass Project Mr WILLIAMS House of Assembly MacKillop Penola Bypass Project Mr WILLIAMS (MacKillop) (14:11): Supplementary question. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Supplementary question, Penola's redoubtable representative. Mr WILLIAMS House of Assembly Mr WILLIAMS: Thank you, Mr Speaker. Can the minister assure the house that in the answer he just gave, when he said the state government funded all of the stage 1 of the Penola bypass, he omitted to acknowledge that the local Wattle Range Council indeed funded a significant portion of that? The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Minister for Housing and Urban Development The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee—Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, Minister for Housing and Urban Development) (14:12): I'm not going to be verballed by the member for MacKillop. The fact remains the federal government has not put one cent on the table for the Penola bypass. Not only has the federal member for Barker sold out the South-East but he won't even fund the Mount Gambier Airport upgrade. They are a disgrace, that Liberal Party, in the way they treat the South-East. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: I take it from the Treasurer's gesticulation that he wants to make a wordless point of order. The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS: The member asked a supplementary question. The minister began to answer it, and it was greeted with a wall of disruptive sound and, Mr Speaker, question time cannot function this way. The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: The minister concerned opened his answer with, 'I'm not going to be verballed by the member for MacKillop,' and therefore he accepted with equanimity the response he sought. The member for Flinders.
