What we’ll do if we’re elected is sit down with the Northern Territory Government to see how soon we can fix projects like this one here. I’ll say something else about our approach towards investment in the Northern Territory: so many of the Government’s announcements that they’ve made are off in the never-never. A future Labor Government will get it fixed. This has been strong representation I’m told, going back to 1998, for this to be fixed. Anyone who’s just seen the truck go past us will know the difference that it will make. What we see here today is a dirt road that damages fruit, that inhibits growth of this industry, and as well reduces job creation here in the Territory.
One of those is $20 million for the mango industry roads. So a $173 million package has been identified, really making clear what the priorities of an incoming future Labor Government would be. They’re also of course about road safety as well - better roads improve safety. These roads are about making a difference to the economy and job creation here in the North Territory. What we are announcing today is 10 new projects here in the Top End, in Katherine but also around Central Australia. Albo?ĪNTHONY ALBANESE: Thanks very much Warren and it’s great to be here with Warren, Malarndirri and Luke for what is a major infrastructure announcement in addition to things that are already in the pipeline.
Albo’s here to make that announcement so I’m going to slip to him straight away and then maybe we’ll make some more comments after. WARREN SNOWDON: Welcome this morning, here we are with Albo, my good colleague and friend Malarndirri, and Luke from Solomon to make some really very important announcements around road infrastructure across the Northern Territory.
