My question is to Senator Conroy, the Minister representing the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government. Is it true that the New South Wales Labor government has just ripped $245 million from the Pacific Highway road program and deferred upgrades at Banora Point and between Tintenbar and Ewingsdale in the electorate of Richmond? Isn’t it the case that Banora Point has been described by the NRMA as the worst black spot between Sydney and Brisbane, where 121 accidents have claimed two lives and injured 67 people between 2003 and 2006?
