I refer to page 90 of
the Main Roads Annual Report 2014-15 and ask in relation to the projects completed on time, of the 28 per cent of projects not completed on time in 2015, can you list each project that was not delivered on time and how late that project was in delivery?

As at 24 March 2016:
The on time results for the Road Efficiency Program in 2014-15 were 72% against a target of 90%. As explained on page 93 of the Annual Report this reflected five contracts being behind time as at 30 June 2015. Of the five two were in progress, the details for the remaining three were:
• Delay of 50 days on the Road Train Assembly Area on Derby Highway due to contractor delays in sealing and white line marking; • Delay of 32 days in the production of basecourse gravel for Bussell Highway on Vlam Road due to the contractor experiencing difficulties in obtaining necessary permits; and • Delay of 7 days in the production of basecourse gravel for Coalfields Highway Upgrade due to the production of an additional 27,000 cubic metres of gravel.
These results were verified by the Auditor General.
