George's Corner

The Hon. R.L. BROKENSHIRE (14:26): Supplementary: can the minister reassure the house, given that he just said there were also, I think, over $3 million that went to road improvement there from MAC, that now the government is privatising MAC, that the money that MAC has been putting into road upgrades and road safety will be an additional supplementary increase from Treasury, or how does he intend to offset the fact that MAC is probably the only one putting extra money into road safety and road infrastructure improvements?

The Hon. P. MALINAUSKAS (Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (14:26): I thank the honourable member for his supplementary question, I know he shares a passion for what happens to regional roads in the state of South Australia. There are multiple sources of revenue, as I am advised, with respect to works undertaken from DPTI regarding regional roads. The $3.5 million investment that I referred to from the Motor Accident Commission road safety fund, as I am advised, is an alternate source of funding, but it works very much hand in hand and in complement with other expenditures that are being undertaken from DPTI in respect to upgrades and road infrastructure.
