House of Assembly Fifty-Fourth Parliament, Second Session (54-2) 54 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Main South Road Duplication Main South Road Duplication The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN House of Assembly Lee Main South Road Duplication The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (14:52): My question is again to the Premier. Can the Premier advise the house how much additional debt will need to be accrued beyond the $33 billion outlined in yesterday's state budget to fund the remainder of the state's commitment to the Main South Road duplication project stages 1 and 2? The Hon. C.L. WINGARD House of Assembly Gibson Minister for Infrastructure and Transport Minister for Recreation Main South Road Duplication The Hon. C.L. WINGARD (Gibson—Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Recreation, Sport and Racing) (14:53): I thank the member for his question. Again, I refer to the excitement surrounding this project and what the Treasurer had to say yesterday. I know he was asked about this on a number of occasions. This is a project that, again, will extend beyond the forward estimates. We've got a significant amount of money in the budget, and the Treasurer has made it very, very clear that we are committed to this project and we will be delivering this project, and that will be worked through with the federal government. We have had great success in the past bringing forward commitments from the federal government to actually deliver against projects. We have settled on the concept design, and that has the two tunnels in it as we have outlined, and we will be working with that profiling as it goes forward. To the Treasurer's point yesterday—and I was delighted to hear him say it—we are committed to delivering this project, and we will deliver this project.
