Economic Stimulus Package

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:24): Supplementary from the original answer: does the Treasurer have or can he take on notice and bring back a figure of what portion of the $350 million is new money, what portion is brought forward from the forward estimates and what portion was money that had been indicated may be spent outside the forward estimates?

The Hon. R.I. LUCAS (Treasurer) (15:24): I am happy to take that question on notice. We have openly acknowledged, as I have outlined in this house today, that a significant part of the maintenance-type projects that we talked about in the $350 million was the bringing forward of projects which are in the forward estimates in maybe years three and four of the forward estimates into year one and year two. A number of the other initiatives were obviously examples of new money that the government had committed to. I am happy to get a broad description of those and bring them back to the house.
