A senator from Victoria says, ‘Is that in Kalgoorlie?’ I have to tell you, when it comes to regional Australia they know it all! There is $23.9 million for upgrading works on the Great Northern Highway between Apple Street in Upper Swan and Wubin. I am waiting for the question, ‘Is that in Kalgoorlie?’ There is $28.1 million for the east-west railway which, they might wish to know, actually does go through the electorate of Kalgoorlie. There is $2 million for the upgrading of the Great Eastern Highway and Roe Highway interchange; $3 million to finish the Clackline township bypass on the Great Eastern Highway—which goes to Kalgoorlie, for those who did not know.
