I have an additional answer to a question by the member for Lingiari. On 13 September this year I can confirm that the tender was awarded to the Australian company Aurecon, an engineering design and advisory company, that will lead preparation of the Kakadu road strategy, which will guide investment of the $70 million roads package. They will work in a consortium with PwC, Pavement Management Services and PwC's Indigenous Consulting, beginning the work immediately.

The road strategy will be developed in consultation with the Kakadu Tourism Master Plan, with a view to improving road safety, visitor access to key sites and ensuring that investment in roads and access complements planned upgrades to visitor infrastructure across Kakadu. I thought the member would be interested in that additional information.
