Mr McCORMACK (Riverina—Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development and Leader of The Nationals) (14:06): Two words in the member for Cowper's question: 'stability' and 'certainty'—that's what the Liberal-National government is absolutely providing through the $100 billion infrastructure rollout over the next decade, that investment pipeline. I know the member for Cowper is genuinely excited about this, because his people told him, in regard to the Coffs bypass, that they wanted tunnels. An environmental impact statement is already out there, and the community is having input into that process. This is, after all, the age of infrastructure. The Coffs Harbour bypass is getting people from the North Coast of New South Wales—indeed, travellers up and down the length and breadth of the Pacific Highway—to where they need to be, sooner and safer. The bypass that the member for Cowper fought so hard for and that we're delivering is going to have four lanes—tunnels 14 kilometres in length, with 12 sets of traffic lights avoided. As the member for Cowper well knows, it's creating 12,000 jobs in the construction phase. The Pacific Highway is such a great project. It's one of the biggest projects we've got on the go at the moment, and it's removing thousands of vehicles, especially heavy vehicles, from the central business district of Coffs Harbour. The member for Cowper said recently, when we visited his electorate to launch the EIS: 'This is not just a bypass. It's not just a road. What it's doing is providing, over the period of the build, some 12,000 direct and indirect jobs.' The money goes straight back into the local economy. It provides jobs in the local economy. And the Coffs Harbour mayor, Denise Knight, is also very excited about this prospect. She said, 'We're absolutely thrilled. It's going out to the community'—that is, the EIS—'so that everybody gets the opportunity to put in their two bob's worth.' Let's remember that this study has been shaped by the people who will be using and benefitting from this bypass each and every day. Community consultation plays an integral role in ensuring we are truly delivering projects that the community wants, needs, expects and—perhaps most importantly, as the member for Cowper knows all too well—deserves. Let's talk about the tunnels. The community called for tunnels to be built into the plans for the bypass, and we're delivering. The three tunnels will feature in the latest design of the bypass, which is what the EIS shows. The EIS is available at local pop-ups—little stalls in the Coffs central business district. It's available from state member Gurmesh Singh's electorate office and from the member for Cowper's electorate office, and it's on the RMS website. This is certainty and stability writ large. The Coffs Harbour bypass—we're getting on and we're building it for the benefit of Australia.
