My office will review this meeting request and make contact with the deputy shortly. As I previously advised the deputy, it is my objective to allocate funding to eligible local authorities on as equitable a basis as possible taking the length of the road network and traffic factors into account. The main focus of State road grants will continue to be the protection and renewal of the regional and local road network. Grant allocations for 2023 will be notified to local authorities early next year.
