Ovens Valley electorate

Tim McCURDY (Ovens Valley) (14:41): (922) My question is to the Minister for Roads and Road Safety on behalf of Karen Barber, who is the CEO of King Valley tourism in the beautiful Ovens Valley. The King Valley Tourism Association is seeking signage on Snow Road to indicate where the King Valley is. Many tourists heading from Melbourne to Bright and beyond are getting confused as to exactly where the King Valley winegrowing area is because there is not an actual town on a map. I ask the minister’s office for assistance in understanding the process for the tourism signs, permission to erect and location and cost-sharing agreements.

The SPEAKER: Member for Ovens Valley, you have time to ask a question. You need a question.

Tim McCURDY: Well, I did. I asked the minister for assistance to get these signs erected – where to get them erected.

The SPEAKER: That is an action. ‘When will the minister provide’ –

Tim McCURDY: When will the minister provide some assistance? Does that please the Speaker?

The SPEAKER: Lucky you had time.
