That is in line with my question. Mr. Spratt answered it without committing to funding. The access road I referenced is designed to service an area that has been barren for years and has now got a development focus with 5,000 to 7,000 new homes coming but no infrastructure to support it. I am glad Mr. Spratt acknowledged access roads were needed. Mr. Doocey referenced a cognisance of housing developments. We can build all these houses but we are not going to have the infrastructure to meet the needs of the people living in the houses. He answered his own question in one sense.
