Members interjecting—

MADAM SPEAKER: Order, Mr Barr! Do not encourage Mr Smyth.

MS GALLAGHER: search for a missing strategy. I would be very happy to provide that information for the member.

Mr Barr: I hope I would never be accused of encouraging Mr Smyth.

MADAM SPEAKER: Order! I just did. A supplementary question, Ms Lawder.

MADAM SPEAKER: A supplementary question, Ms Lawder.

MS LAWDER: Minister, what is the total funding for the arts policy framework in this year’s budget?

MS GALLAGHER: I will take that on notice and provide the information to the Assembly.

MADAM SPEAKER: A supplementary question, Ms Lawder.

MS LAWDER: Minister, could you update the Assembly on the targets and time lines of the arts policy framework?

MS GALLAGHER: I refer members to arts.act.gov.au. A wide range of information is available there for members, including funding, arts in the ACT, community participation, policy, projects and resources. It seems to cover all of the issues you have raised today. I know you all have tablets in front of you; I encourage you to use them.

Planning—Calwell

MR WALL: My question is to the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services. Minister, in September this year I wrote to you about the need for time-limited car parking to be installed at the Calwell shops, as well as the need for a pedestrian crossing to improve safety and an upgrade of existing line markings. I have since been advised by traders at the Calwell shops that as a result of my correspondence to you, the installation of three-hour parking will occur. Minister, will you advise the Assembly when this work will be completed?

MR RATTENBURY: Coincidentally, Mr Wall, I actually just signed my reply letter to you this morning. You should receive it as soon as it gets emailed to you. I recall from signing it this morning that the works will be completed within this calendar year. I cannot remember the exact date, but you will receive it in the next 24 hours.

MADAM SPEAKER: A supplementary question, Mr Wall.

MR WALL: I eagerly await the correspondence.
