Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (14:29): I certainly can assure the people of Victoria that they will get their fair share of projects. I can assure them of that. But I do hope that the incoming Premier of Victoria does reconsider his misguided commitment to tear up the East West Link contract. I do hope that he will reconsider that commitment because it is pretty clear that the people of Victoria do want the East West Link. Even the Leader of the Opposition— Opposition members interjecting— The SPEAKER: There will be silence on my left. Mr ABBOTT: wants the East West Link, because the Leader of the Opposition was the author of two submissions—not one, but two submissions—in favour of the East West Link. Ms Butler interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Griffith will put down her prop. Mr ABBOTT: So this government is in favour of the East West Link. The Leader of the Opposition, once upon a time, at least, was in favour of the East West Link. And we are only too happy to continue to deliver $3 billion to the government of Victoria, provided it goes ahead with building the East West Link that it is contractually obligated to build.
