The only responsibility I have for roads is in respect of the local improvement scheme, LIS, which I have opened and for which I have provided funding again this year. At Cabinet level, I always promote and push for funding for tertiary roads. The Deputy is correct that it is an issue, and it is one we need to promote. I will talk to my colleague, the Minister, Deputy Ross. The LIS has worked well.

The Deputy will be doing a bit of walking down the road in the next fortnight. I hear the Deputy is getting married and I wish him well. I hope his road will be in very good shape that morning for the bride to be.
