  • P2608f-2612A Hon George Cash
    Extract from Hansard [COUNCIL - Thursday, 31 May 2007] p2608f-2612a Hon George Cash ESTIMATES OF REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE Consideration of Tabled Papers Resumed from an earlier stage of the sitting. HON GEORGE CASH (North Metropolitan) [4.35 pm]: Before question time I was indicating that, each financial year, generally in May, the government makes a statement that it will spend so many billions of dollars for the financial year. Only 30 to 50 days later - by 30 June - it is spending much less. I indicated that in 2001-02, in 45 days, $153 million worth of works went missing or did not occur; in 2002-03, over 53 days, $350 million went missing; in 2003-04, over 55 days, $355 million went missing; and in 2004-05, over 35 days, $453 million went missing. I was up to 2005-06. On 11 May 2006, the government announced that it would spend $5.1 billion on infrastructure and general capital works for the financial year. Fifty days later, on 30 June, the actual expenditure was $4.527 billion. During that 50-day period, for some inexplicable reason, $573 million worth of construction of general infrastructure and capital expenditure did not occur. Adding up those figures shows that, in May and June of the years I have mentioned, the total underspending was $1.9 billion. I acknowledge that in some cases projects were rolled over to the next year, there were cost escalations in other cases, and there were, no doubt, some other reasons. However, it beggars belief that the government can make a statement in May that it will spend a specific amount of money, and then a matter of weeks later change that figure by millions and millions of dollars.
