(1 - 2)  Please refer to Question on Notice 4503. It should also be noted that planning money for the detailed design to enable work to begin on this major project will be made available once the Federal Government approves funding. Unfortunately, earlier this year the Federal Government refused to fund this project after lobbying from the Liberal-National State Government. It is noted that, unfortunately, no significant detailed planning work was undertaken by the previous failed Labor State Government.
