Torrens to Darlington Project

The Hon. R.A. SIMMS (15:03): Supplementary?

The PRESIDENT: I am not sure where we get a worthy supplementary question out of that answer because it's probably one of the worst Dorothy's I have heard. Please, minister, don't do that again—people in pyjamas! Give me a break.

The Hon. R.A. SIMMS: How much did the state government pay for the boring machines, and what is the overall state government contribution to the north-south corridor project?

The PRESIDENT: I'm not sure that any of that was in the answer—I heard pyjamas and deckchairs—but, minister, if you want to have a crack.

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (Minister for Infrastructure and Transport, Minister for Autism) (15:04): I apologise to the President, who is not wanting to hear about the biggest infrastructure project we have ever had in our state.

The PRESIDENT: Okay, sit down. The Hon. Ms Bonaros.

Members interjecting:

The PRESIDENT: No; the Hon. Ms Bonaros. I have had enough of that.
