Regional South Australia

Adjourned debate on motion of Hon N.J. Centofanti:

That this council commends the Marshall Liberal government for recognising the importance of regional South Australia and its communities, noting their contribution to our economy worth more than $29 billion per year, through:

1. Investing $3 billion across more than 1,000 regional projects;

2. Upgrading hospitals, doubling country cancer services and upgrading about 4,800 kilometres of regional roads; and

3. Implementing the Our Regions Matter blueprint following extensive consultation with regional communities about what is needed to improve opportunities for the 29 percent of South Australia's population living and working outside the metropolitan community.

(Continued from 19 May 2022.)

The Hon. N.J. CENTOFANTI (Leader of the Opposition) (01:11): I move:

That this order of the day be discharged.

Motion carried; order of the day discharged.
