Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL - Tuesday, 30 March 2010] p1093b-1095a Hon Ed Dermer; Hon Norman Moore RESOURCES SECTOR — MINES SAFETY INSPECTIONS 85. Hon ED DERMER to the Minister for Mines and Petroleum: I ask this question on behalf of Hon Jon Ford, who is unable to attend in the house at this time. Some notice has been given of the question. I refer to mines inspectors and inspections since 26 November 2009. (1) How many mines inspectors did the Resources Safety division of the Department of Mines and Petroleum have employed on actual mines safety inspections at the start of December 2009, in January 2010 and in February 2010? (2) How many inspections were carried out, and where, in the months of December 2009, January 2010 and February 2010? Hon NORMAN MOORE replied: I thank the member for some notice of this question. This answer is correct as at 30 March. (1) The number of inspectors of mines employed by the Resources Safety division of the Department of Mines and Petroleum who carried out site inspections during this period is as follows: in December 2009, 29; in January 2010, 25; in February 2010, 32; and in March to date, 26. (2) The number of the site inspections carried out during this period is as follows: in December 2009, 144; in January 2010, 118; in February 2010, 159; and in March 2010—that is, to 30 March 2010—128. I table the attached documents that detail the exact location of each site visit. Please note that some sites were visited more than once. I seek to have that table incorporated into Hansard.
