Mr. Ken Spratt:

Before I hand over to Mr. Doocey in terms of the detail of the question the Deputy asked, it is important that we try to balance our spend on protection and renewal of the assets we have so they can continue to serve the people who use those roads in a safe and secure way with new road investment as well. The new housing activation office under the new housing plan is very focused on trying to ensure, for example, where the west of a town is thriving but the east is not because a lack of an access road, funding is found through us and the housing activation office's new budget to put a road into the east side while continuing to serve the west side.
