BOURKE (Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Autism) (15:14):</by>  I am advised that total road maintenance spend over the last three years is 57 per cent spent in regional areas. We are spending a large amount of money in our regional communities to make sure that we can maintain our roads. We have 23,000 kilometres of sealed and unsealed roads in South Australia and we know that a substantial amount of that is going into our regional communities.</text>
