I thank the honourable member for her question. Her passionate support for the construction of infrastructure in Western Australia has certainly been influential in delivering the biggest infrastructure program that our country has ever seen. Our $50 billion towards major infrastructure projects around the country is at least $18 billion more than Labor committed at the last election, so there are many, many projects that this government is building that the other side has made no commitment to. That is why it is so important for the people of Western Australia to make sure that they vote for the coalition on Saturday in a crucial by-election, because that will be the vote of confidence that is necessary to ensure that this infrastructure program is maintained. Big projects like Northlink WA.
