(a) The Roadwise 2011-12 funding was reduced due to a decrease in the Road Trauma  Trust Account (RTTA) balance at the time the budget was formulated.
The 2011-12 RTTA budget was formulated before the Government's announcement that revenue flow into the RTTA would increase.
(b) The project has not been evaluated by an independent market research study.
(i) As above it is monitored but not evaluated.
