REGIONAL CONNECTIVITY PROGRAM
385. Hon WILSON TUCKER to the Minister for Regional Development:
There has been no notice of this
question. I refer the minister to the Regional Connectivity Program, which is
funded jointly by the commonwealth and state governments. I note the limited
access to data and voice services across the Kimberley and the impacts that the
lack of connectivity has on Kimberley residents. Can the minister advise the
house when the first new RCP-funded Telstra mobile towers planned for the
Kimberley are expected to come online?

Member, I enjoy questions without
notice—I wish I had more of them—but, realistically, it is not
reasonable to expect that I would know the detail of all those individual
towers. I am happy to provide that information if the member asks me the
question tomorrow.
The PRESIDENT : I think the
minister is inviting the member to resubmit the question with notice.
