OUTBACK ROADS

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (15:03): Does the government intend to lay more of the short stretches of bitumen road intermittently along the Strzelecki Track?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Tourism, Minister for the Status of Women) (15:03): To seal? To provide sealed roads? Is that what you're asking?

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS: Yes, well they are there now—

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: That is obviously a question for the Minister for Transport, and I am happy to refer that to the Minister for Transport in another place and bring back an answer.
