I rise to express my concern to members on the lack of progress by Gosford City to proceed with the construction of 400 additional parking places, agreed to be funded by the federal government. Increasingly, the capacity of car parking for commuters, which was a priority election commitment of mine in the lead-up to the 2007 election, has become an issue in the electorate. Certainly, I feel it is important that the council proceed with that construction.

Order! In accordance with standing order 193 the time for constituency statements has concluded.
