SUPPLIES AND SERVICES EXPENSES

334 Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (21 October 2008). With respect to the 2008-09 budget papers—Program 1: policy and planning, what are the reasons for a $6.295 million increase in 'supplies and services' expenses?

The Hon. P.F. CONLON (Elder—Minister for Transport, Minister for Infrastructure, Minister for Energy): I provide the following information:

The $6.295 million increase in 'supplies and services', as provided in Budget Paper 4 Volume 2, is a result of additional expenditure for AusLink 2 planning studies, Adelaide freight movement studies, urban congestion studies, the Intelligent Access Program and the implementation of the national model legislation to introduce Chain of Responsibility for Heavy Vehicle Speed Compliance.
