It is the case that there are some projects—some in the cities, some in the bush—that we have decided cannot proceed because there is no funding for them, there is no business case for them, or their costs have blown out so much that they are simply unaffordable. But at the same time, by making those sorts of decisions, we can fund things like the Rockhampton Ring Road. We can fund things like the Charters Towers industrial precinct access.
