UPPER SPENCER GULF

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (14:48): Is the minister aware of any national evaluation of the quality of the road maps drawn up by the South Australian RDA boards she mentioned in her answer, particularly with respect to Whyalla and Eyre Peninsula?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Regional Development, Minister for Public Sector Management, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister for Gambling) (14:49): I am not aware of any specific evaluation that is being conducted nationally. I know the commonwealth government is very interested in those road maps, because they are key to describing the potential for future directions. One of the main roles and functions of the RDAs is to formulate these road maps to give guidance and direction for future potential for investment, growth, development, etc. I know that the federal government is very interested in those road maps. They are very keen for the road maps to be reviewed regularly so that they remain living, breathing contemporary documents. In terms of a specific evaluation, I am not aware of that, but I do know that they are keenly interested, and rightly so. As I said, they are a very important building block to the future of our regions.
