Mr WOOD (La Trobe) (14:59): My question is to the Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development. Will the minister update the House on the status of the East West Link? What benefits will this vital infrastructure project deliver to communities in Melbourne? Is the minister aware of any other plans to reduce traffic congestion? Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: I call the honourable Assistant Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development, and we will have a lessening of noise on my left so that we can hear the answer. That includes the member for Charlton.
