The local improvement scheme is essential for tarring rural roads. It is the first stretch of road that people will drive in the morning, the last they will drive in the evening and probably the most frequently driven piece of road. The local improvement scheme is the only hope for tarring these roads. Having enough funding and making it available to the widest number of people is important. Can the Minister give an outline of funding to run that important scheme?
