Are there plans to duplicate or make improvements to the Sturt Highway from Shea-Oak Log to the Victorian border? With your leave, sir, and that of the house, I will explain. Leave granted. Mr PEDERICK House of Assembly Hammond Mr PEDERICK: Thirty-six lives have been lost on this road since 2018. The Hon. G.G. BROCK House of Assembly Stuart Minister for Local Government Minister for Regional Roads Minister for Veterans Affairs The Hon. G.G. BROCK (Stuart—Minister for Local Government, Minister for Regional Roads, Minister for Veterans Affairs) (15:08): I know what the member is trying to get a commitment to: plans for a duplication out there. Any duplication of any highway out there involves a cooperation with the federal government and we all know that. I haven't seen any plans from the previous government for the duplication of either of those two roads to my knowledge at this stage. What I will be doing is I will be taking that seriously on notice. I'm doing an analysis of all the roads across all of regional South Australia, member for Hammond. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order! The minister has the call. Order! The Hon. G.G. BROCK House of Assembly Stuart Minister for Local Government Minister for Regional Roads Minister for Veterans Affairs The Hon. G.G. BROCK: You've tried to get some points across, I understand that, but to get to the long term, I will get a full and better understanding and a full report back for the member. I reinforce that I haven't seen any plans since I've come over, from the previous government, for the duplications of many highways out there, but I will get more information for the member for Hammond and get back to you. Members interjecting: The Speaker House of Assembly The SPEAKER: Order!
