DIVISION 3: PREMIER AND CABINET - SERVICES 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 11 [Supplementary Information No A42.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney: I am interested to know the number of positions that will be lost from regional areas as a result of the government’s shared corporate services program, the towns they will be lost from, and the agencies within those towns. (First dot point, page 70) Answer: Non-Health and Education Sector Agencies The Whole of Government Business case for savings for this group of agencies did not include any reductions in regionally based Corporate Services staff. The majority of ‘back office’ corporate services processing (eg. Accounts payable, Accounts receivable and Payroll) is already undertaken in Perth. Agency intentions with regard to possible realignment of their regional corporate service positions is not known to this Department and will need to be obtained from the agencies concerned. Education and Training Sector It is estimated that approximately 30 Full Time Equivalent (FTE) TAFE positions will be surplus in the regional areas as a result of the government’s shared corporate services program. The impact on each regional location will not be known until detailed analysis is finalised with each TAFE College by the end of 2005. Further, the number of positions lost will be dependent upon the way in which the six (6) regional colleges restructure their finance and human resource areas. Health Sector It is anticipated that approximately 91 rural FTEs will be transferred to the Health Corporate Network (HCN) Shared Service Centre. It is important to note that these numbers are still fluid and are subject to the final business model to be implemented by HCN. Therefore, these are the maximum number of possible transfers. It is noted that where there is proportion or part of an FTE in a regional location, there will most likely be a reshaping of the position, thus lessening the impact. The estimated reductions by regions are: Kimberley 8.4 Pilbara/Gascoyne 11.4 Midwest 9.8 Great Southern 10.8 Wheatbelt 15.9 Goldfields 13.4 South West 21.8 TOTAL 91.5 Savings from this initiative will be redirected to the front line services of Health, Education and Training, and Law and Order. [Supplementary Information No A43.] Question: Mr R.F. Johnson: I am referring to service 3, management of policy. Has the monthly electronic newsletter, “The Social Agenda”, been published since the first edition in January? (Service 3 – Management of Policy) Answer: No. On 23 January 2005, the State election was called and the Government went into caretaker mode until early March 2005. In the aftermath of the election, the Policy Division (including the Social Policy Unit) was restructured leading to a delay in the production of the second edition of the newsletter. The second edition of The Social Agenda will be emailed in the next fortnight. It is envisaged that the Social Policy Unit’s e-newsletter will continue to be produced on a monthly basis.

[Supplementary Information No A44.] Question: Mr R.F. Johnson: How many people are employed in the Department of the Premier and Cabinet and under which categories are they employed - for instance, media advisers, policy advisers and other categories - compared with the 11 February 2001? (Third dot point on page 69) Answer: Estimated full time equivalents (FTEs) are provided for 2000/01 and 2004/05.

[Supplementary Information No A45.] Question: Mr P.D. Omodei: What are the financial boundaries set by the government for the Oracle contract for shared services delivery and has there been a cost blow out? If there has, by how much has it blown out? (Major Achievements Page 85) Answer: The Government has signed a $66.8M, ten-year contract with Oracle for the delivery of Software Systems to support the implementation of Shared Corporate Services across the sector. There has been no cost blow out as the contract was signed on Thursday 9 June 2005, with work commencing Friday 10 June 2005. [Supplementary Information No A46.] Question: Mr J.H.D. Day: Where in the budget papers is the $250,000 that the Premier announced would be available for revitalising and upgrading the Roleystone Town Centre, and when will the funds be made available? (Service 1, page 76) Answer: An appropriation of $250,000 for the Roleystone Improvement fund will be administered by the Department of Planning and Infrastructure (DPI) and is shown in the Grants and Subsidies table in Division 39 of the Budget Statements at page 644. The additional funding has currently been allocated to DPI in 2007/08, but I am advised that DPI is expecting that initial work on the project can commence in 2005-06 though internal prioritisation of Departmental works. [Supplementary Information No A47.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney: How many public servants were there when the Premier took power on 11 February 2001, and how many are there as at the latest updated figure? Answer: Information is available at the dates shown below for public sector employees of public sector agencies that are obliged to report human resource minimum obligatory requirements (HR MOIR) information. No separate information is available for “public servants”, that is, those employed under Part 3 of the Public Sector Management Act 1994. Full Time Equivalent (FTE) count as at 30 December 2000 was 86,555. FTE count as at 31 March 2001 was 88,016. FTE count as at 30 December 2004 was 96,154. FTE count as at 31 March 2005 was 97,607 The increase from March 2001 (88,016 FTEs) to March 2005 (97,617 FTEs) is 9,601 FTEs. Based on figures published in the Profile of the Western Australian State Government Workforce and available on the Department of the Premier and Cabinet website, staffing levels for the Department of Education and Training increased by 3,590 FTEs and the Department of Health increased by 3,261 FTEs, and these two agencies account for 71% of the increase in FTEs between the two periods. The remainder of the increase took place in many smaller agencies. [Supplementary Information No A48.] Question: Mr P.D. Omodei: Can the Premier provide the number of people employed in the Government Media Office, and their names and salary levels? (Major Policy Decisions, page 70) Answer: The following officers were employed in the Government Media Office as at 9 June 2005. A number of Government Media officers work part time, and the salaries reported hereunder are calculated at the part-time rate.

Day: I refer to the capital works program on page 100. An amount of $2.6 million has been allocated to the ministerial office refurbishment. Which ministerial offices will be refurbished? Does it involve the transfer of any existing ministerial offices elsewhere; and, if so, will offices be transferred to offices that were previously ministerial offices? Is there a breakdown of the cost of the refurbishment of each office that will be affected? (Capital Works program, page 100) Answer: Four new ministerial offices are to be established as follows; - Hon J D’Orazio, MLA, Minister for Justice Small Business in Dumas House; - Hon J Ford, MLC, Minister for Fisheries, the Kimberley, Pilbara and Gascoyne in Dumas House; - Hon M McGowan, MLA, Minister for Tourism; Racing and Gaming; Youth; Peel and the South West; in Governor Stirling Tower; and - Hon J McGinty Attorney General; Minister for Health; Electoral Affairs in London House. Hon J McGinty, MLA will be transferred from Allendale Square to new premises in London House. The lease of the Allendale Square accommodation is due to terminate in March 2006. Relocation to London House will enable an office to be constructed that makes more effective use of a small floor space. This will result in significant annual savings on rent and outgoings. Three new offices are being established as the number of Ministers has increased from 14 to 17. There is no breakdown on costs that are estimates at this point in time based on current market conditions (availability and cost of contractors), the standard expected for a Minister and the cost of refurbishment recently undertaken by the Department. [Supplementary Information No A50.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney: Could the Premier provide by way of supplementary information a list of names of all the people who have received or will receive severance moneys in 2004-05 and 2005-06, the office in which they worked, the position they held and the severance payment they received?

[Supplementary Information No A51.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney asked about the Kalgoorlie-Boulder development fund and whether any funds are still available in it and what its status is within government. (Sixth dot point on page 83) Answer: The Kalgoorlie-Boulder Development Fund was funded as a 2001 election commitment, with $1 million to be spent over four years. The four years have now been completed and all funding has been allocated to projects that have benefited the social development of Kalgoorlie-Boulder. For exact details on the allocation of the money granted under the Kalgoorlie-Boulder Development Fund, the Leader of the Opposition may refer to the Goldfields Esperance Development Commission’s Annual Reports for 2002, 2003 and 2004. Projects that received funding this year will be included in the 2005 Annual Report. Also in relation to the Regional Investment Fund (RIF), a question from the Deputy Leader of the Opposition; Paul Omodei MLA about whether the $20 million Pilbara Fund is part of the $80 million RIF, the answer given was that it is separate from RIF. This is true for 50% of the Fund, however the other 50% was allocated from the strategic commitments component of the Regional Investment Fund. [Supplementary Information No A52.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney: Why has the Governor’s Establishment been granted an exemption from Capital User Charge? (Appropriation and Forward Estimates, page 107) Answer: Governor’s Establishment received an exemption from the Capital User Charge on the basis that Government House, the Ballroom and Gardens are heritage listed assets and held primarily for community purposes. The Executive Director Agency Resources, Department of Treasury and Finance confirmed exemption in writing on 18 October 2004 “in accordance with current Government policy”. The Treasurer may provide further information regarding the allocation of capital user charges across government. [Supplementary Information No A53.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney requested an explanation for the cash amount of $830,000 in 2005-06 estimates, and similar amounts of $825,000 and $840,000 in the outyears. (Balance sheet, page 112) Answer: The Ballroom refurbishment program was completed in 2003/2004 at a cost of $3 million but was not fully paid for prior to the 2004/2005 financial year. $800,000 was carried over from 2003/2004 into the cash assets opening balance for 2004/2005 to meet the balance remaining to be paid. The Treasury reporting system carries that balance across all out-years, until the amount is actually spent. The $800,000 has since been paid this financial year and there is no further amount outstanding for the Ballroom. As a result there is now a corresponding reduction in the cash and cash equivalents balance that will be reflected in the audited actual financial statements for the 2004/2005 year and will also flow through the budget for all subsequent out- years. [Supplementary Information No A54.] Question: Mr M.J. Birney asked whether, regardless of a recommendation made by the Salaries and Allowances Tribunal, local councils will still have the autonomy to set salary levels for chief executive officers. (Second dot point Significant Issues and Trends on page 126) Answer: Yes. Local councils will have the autonomy to set salary levels for Chief Executive Officers, but they are required to take the recommendation of the Salaries and Allowances Tribunal into account. The intention of the recommendation is that it should provide guidance to councillors in making their decision.

DIVISION 3: PREMIER AND CABINET - SERVICE 8, NATIVE TITLE POLICY DEVELOPMENT, IMPLEMENTATION AND NEGOTIATION [Supplementary Information No A36.] Question: Mr C.J. Barnett asked can the Treasurer give an update of what has happened since the Burrup Agreement was reached? Answer: The Office of Native Title (“ONT”), in conjunction with other Government agencies, is in the process of implementing several key components of the Burrup and Maitland Industrial Estates Agreement Implementation Deed (“the Burrup Agreement”) and the Burrup and Maitland Industrial Estates Agreement Additional Deed (“the Additional Deed”). A summary of the progress made in the implementation of both the Burrup Agreement and the Additional Deed is set out as follows: The consultant assisting the Indigenous groups with the incorporation of the Approved Body Corporate has arranged, what is expected to be, the penultimate round of consultations with the Indigenous groups for 21 & 22 June 2005. It is envisaged that, subject to the approval of the rules by the Indigenous groups, the Approved Body Corporate will be incorporated with the Office of the Registrar of Aboriginal Corporations by October 2005; The second and final upfront payment pursuant to the Burrup Agreement of $1.5 million was made to the Indigenous groups on the 2 February 2005 following the issue of the Taking Order for land for the first future proponent. The payment is being held in trust pending the incorporation of the Approved Body Corporate; The Non-Industrial land as defined in the Burrup Agreement has been surveyed and a deposited plan has been lodged with the Department of Land Information in readiness for the transfer of the freehold to the Approved Body Corporate. The Advisory Committee established to assist in the drafting of the Management Plan for the Non-Industrial land is to convene again shortly and is working towards finalising the plan in mid July 2005. Once the draft Management Plan is finalised it will then be released for public consultation; An agreement has been reached between the Indigenous groups and the Department of Education and Training to commence negotiations with the Ngarliyarndu Bindirri Aboriginal Corporation (NBAC) - Roebourne CDEP, to act as host for the Employment Service Provider; The Department of Indigenous Affairs and the Department of Industry and Resources are progressing the strategy for the completion of the heritage surveys required under the Additional Deed and have identified two of the six areas that are required to be surveyed which they intend to commence surveying by July 2005; and The preliminary assessment on the Rock Art emission monitoring from CSIRO has been received and once the results have been assessed by international referees they will be released to the public and made available on the DoIR website.

Question: Mr C.J. Barnett asked how access to the northern Burrup for the general community is being handled in the implementation of the Burrup Agreement and is it (sic) an attempt to achieve that? Answer: Public access to the northern Burrup Peninsula is an issue that has been identified for resolution by the Advisory Committee assisting in the drafting of the Management Plan for the Non-Industrial land. The Management Plan for the Non-Industrial land, which is still in development, will address this specific issue once finalised. [Supplementary Information No A37.] Question: Mr C.J. Barnett asked what is being done under the Burrup Agreement to involve Aboriginal people and the long-term management and protection of the rock art? Answer: The management of any Indigenous sites of significance located within the Burrup Non-Industrial land will be determined by the agreed Management Plan and implemented by the Management Council established under the Management Agreement. The Management Council will comprise four representatives from the Approved Body Corporate, three representatives from the Department of Conservation and Land Management (CALM), one representative from the Department of Indigenous Affairs and any other person agreed to be appointed by the Executive Director of CALM and the Approved Body Corporate. (The Approved Body Corporate is the entity that will hold the benefits derived from the Burrup Industrial Estates Agreement Implementation Deed on behalf of the three Indigenous groups that are a party to the agreement. Membership to the Approved Body Corporate is limited only to members of those three Indigenous groups.) The management and protection of Indigenous sites of significance within the remainder of the land the subject of the Burrup Agreement will be in accordance with the provisions of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 1972 and the Department of Indigenous Affairs’ existing consultative policies and procedures. DIVISION 3: PREMIER AND CABINET - SERVICE 9, SCIENCE AND INNOVATION PROMOTION AND SUPPORT [Supplementary Information No B7.] Question: Dr S.C.

Staff Costs The cost of providing support for the Premier’s Science Council is calculated on the proportion of the number of Full Time Equivalent (FTE) required plus the proportion of operating costs incurred. The cost in 2004/05 was $163,309. DIVISION 7: TREASURY AND FINANCE [Supplementary Information No A38.] Question: Mr D.T. Redman asked whether the minister could provide details of agencies that have met or not met the reporting guidelines. Answer: For the purposes of producing the whole of government Quarterly Financial Results Reports (required under the Government Financial Responsibility Act 2000), the Department of Treasury and Finance generally requires all agencies to submit their quarterly financial data by the fifteenth day of the month following the end of the quarter. The 2004-05 estimate for the outcome ‘percentage of agencies that met reporting timeliness and information requirements’ is an average of the agency submissions received by the due date for the first three quarters of the financial year, as well as agencies’ June 2004 submissions received by the due date (31 July 2004). The table below lists the agencies that did not submit the most recent (March 2005) quarterly data by the due date.

DIVISION 9: ECONOMIC REGULATION AUTHORITY [Supplementary Information No A41.] Question: Mr C.J. Barnett asked to be provided with the submission by the Water Corporation to the Economic Regulation Authority in September 2004 in relation to the Inquiry on Urban Water and Wastewater Pricing, or alternatively if for confidentiality reasons the submission cannot be released, the member asked to be provided with any non-confidential references in that submission to the costs of the Perth Seawater Desalination Plant. Answer: The following review process has informed the Authority’s deliberations to date: • On 22 July 2004, the Authority published an Issues Paper setting out the background to the Inquiry and the issues to be considered and inviting public comment. Thirty one submissions were received in response to the Issues Paper and were published on the Authority’s website. • A Methodology Paper was released on 15 October 2004, which described the methodology that the Authority would use to arrive at its pricing recommendations. The paper set out the questions that the Authority has sought to address, the information service providers were asked to provide in their pricing submissions and the methodology that the Authority intended to use in analysing the information from service providers. • Draft pricing submissions were subsequently received including from the Water Corporation on 26 November 2004 and a final submission was received on 24 December 2004. The final pricing submissions (excluding confidential information) were published on the Authority’s website. • The Draft Report was published on 18 March 2005. Twenty three submissions were received and were published on the Authority’s website. • Public forums were held in Perth on 19 May 2005 and in Bunbury and Busselton on 23 May 2005. The process outlined above is different to the process originally envisaged by the Authority when it released the Issues Paper and Methodology Paper. The Authority released the following notice on 1 December 2004 explaining the amended process for the Inquiry on Urban Water and Wastewater Pricing.: [7 - 10 June 2005] E523

The Authority has amended the process for the Inquiry on Water and Wastewater Pricing, which was previously published in the Issues Paper and the Methodology Paper released by the Authority on 22 July and 15 October 2004 respectively. The Authority had previously indicated that following the calling of submissions from service providers due on 26 November 2004 it would invite public comment on these submissions prior to releasing the Authority’s Draft Report by 18 March 2005. The Authority has given consideration to allowing more time for service providers to prepare these submissions to the Authority by allowing for a draft version to be submitted by 26 November 2004 and the final version by 24 December 2004. This amendment to the timeframe means there will be insufficient time to seek public comment on these submissions from service providers prior to the issuing of the Draft Report by the Authority due 18 March 2005. The amended timetable has the advantage of allowing service providers additional time to complete their submissions, and also enables the public to review the Authority’s view of the issues raised in these submissions. The submissions from service providers will therefore be made public at the time of the release of the Authority’s Draft Report on Urban Water and Wastewater Pricing and public comment will be sought on both the Authority’s Draft Report and the Service Providers’ submissions. In relation to the costs of the Perth Seawater Desalination Plant, the Authority has received the following information from the Water Corporation as part of its public consultation process: • The Water Corporation’s submission in response to the Issues Paper, which was received on 3 September 2004 and placed on the Authority’s website on 10 September 2004, included the following text: The Corporation has begun the development of the $346 million Perth Seawater Desalination Plant and ancillary infrastructure that will provide 45 gigalitres of water annually (or an additional 17%) to the Integrated Water Supply Scheme. (p5) The Perth Seawater Desalination Plant will cost around $1.11 per kilolitre to construct and operate, while other long term options are being examined that cost in the order of $0.75-$0.80 per kilolitre (on average). (p31) • The Water Corporation’s draft submission in response to the Methodology Paper was received on 26 November 2004. The confidential information received as an attachment to this submission did not indicate the cost of the desalination plant. The non-confidential part of the submission, which has not been placed on the Authority’s website, included the following text: Although it is insufficient to generate the Corporation’s return target of 4% on asset constructed prior to 1996 and 6% on assets constructed thereafter, the Corporation has proposed price increases until 2008/09 equal to the Consumer Price Increase, with variations for expenditure in addition to that proposed in its 2004/05 Strategic Development Plan. There are only two variations to date, both of which will be applied to water services only: • 13.5% for the additional annual cost of approximately $50m associated with the Perth Seawater Desalination Plant in 2006/07 and, • 2.1% to recover the costs of water trading with Harvey Water in 2008/09. (p30) • The Water Corporation’s final submission in response to the Methodology Paper was received on 22 December 2004 and the non-confidential part of the submission was placed on the Authority’s website on 18 March 2005. The confidential information received as an attachment to this submission did not indicate the cost of the desalination plant. The non-confidential information included the following text, which is the same as in the Water Corporation’s draft submission: Although it is insufficient to generate the Corporation’s return target of 4% on asset constructed prior to 1996 and 6% on assets constructed thereafter, the Corporation has proposed price increases until 2008/09 equal to the Consumer Price Increase, with variations for expenditure in addition to that proposed in its 2004/05 Strategic Development Plan. There are only two variations to date, both of which will be applied to water services only: • 13.5% for the additional annual cost of approximately $50m associated with the Perth Seawater Desalination Plant in 2006/07 and, • 2.1% to recover the costs of water trading with Harvey Water in 2008/09. (p36) • The Water Corporation’s submission in response to the Draft Report, which was received on 5 May 2005 and placed on the Authority’s website on 10 May 2005, included the following text: The price increase in this submission has been revised from 13.5% to 13.3% in line with new cost estimates for the desalination plant. (Footnote, p5) The Draft Report shows a change of only $12 per year for an average user. However, based on the ERA’s proposed methodology, the increase for an average water user (using 300kL per year) would correctly be $29.75 (8%) under Option 1 and $25.55 (7%) under Option 2. This is in addition to the $44 increase required to recover the costs of the desalination plant.

Thomas: I refer the parliamentary secretary to the fourth dot point on page 205, which discusses the horticultural industries, and the competition they face in their traditional export markets. It refers specifically to carrots and cauliflowers, but I assume that the government is also looking at the other areas of horticulture, particularly at the moment stone fruits.

E524 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

Plum prices have plummeted. What is the government doing to assist the horticultural industries? Can the parliamentary secretary provide some specifics about what the government is doing to assist? The parliamentary secretary does not have to do this now, but is it possible to get a one-page summary showing what the department is investing and where? Answer: The Western Australian (WA) horticulture industries have a strong focus on exports for growth, due to the small size of the domestic market. The focus includes both overseas and interstate exports and occurs in all sectors from wine to fresh flower exports. A number of the industries have come under strong competition in their traditional export markets in recent times. This includes the carrot and cauliflower industries, and the stonefruit industry. The Department of Agriculture Western Australia (DAWA) supports this export focus with market development projects that are developed in partnership with the industries, and in many cases, include industry funding support. DAWA activities to support the horticultural industry The following are examples of the projects that DAWA has developed and is carrying out to support market development in the horticulture industries: • Supporting new market development. DAWA facilitates the development of new market channels into South East Asia i.e. Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Korea etc., but also develops new channels into alternative markets such as the Middle East and Europe. DAWA will coordinate visits of food and wine buyers from major importer and retail groups linking opportunities with local exporters and industry associations, investment in a Market Development Officer. • DAWA provides ongoing market and competitor intelligence to the horticultural industry on opportunities in innovative product and packaging development, as well as product branding and marketing. DAWA invests into the development and marketing of the WA organic industry, investment in a Market Development Officer. • Developing opportunities to shorten the supply chain in Asia by-passing the traditional wholesaler network and developing opportunities of cost effective new technologies of bulk shipments and new post harvest processes to access more distant markets e.g. modified atmosphere film development for export cauliflower developed in partnership with CSIRO, investment of $25,000. • DAWA staff assisted the carrot industry, via the Carrot Association for Research and Development, WA Inc. (CARD), to develop a Carrot Industry Plan to formulate actions in maximise the industries international competitiveness. This plan was released in February 2005. • A detailed study, by DAWA, of the cost structure of carrot and cauliflower exports is due for completion in December 2005. Production, packing, packaging and freight costs will be covered with a view to considering where cost savings may be made and at what market price/currency value combinations the industries can maintain viability, investment of $50,000. • By improving production efficiency (e.g. higher yields, lower unit production costs), WA producers can improve their competitive position. There is scope to improve the yields of carrots and cauliflowers through innovative agronomic practices. A DAWA/Horticulture Australia Limited (HAL) funded project focused on reducing labour costs in cauliflower production commenced last year, investment of $150,000. • Innovative supply chain approaches are being tested in the fruit industry. Red Delicious apples are now being exported to India in bulk bins and then repacked and sold in a business alliance with an Indian company. This project is ongoing and Manjimup producers are expanding their supply of apples to this market, investment of $50,000. • A project to demonstrate the excellent quality of seed potatoes produced in WA to near Asian markets is ongoing. This project has shown the yield and quality benefits of using WA seed in Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam and Sri Lanka. As a result, exports are beginning to increase and interest in WA seed is now coming from other countries and the eastern States, investment of $150,000. • Product differentiation in overseas markets is an avenue help to maintain market share. Chinese product is improving in quality, but there are questions over Chinese production systems and lack of product traceability. DAWA is supporting development of environmental assurance systems (as part of the State Government’s Farming for the Future and HAL’s Horticulture for Tomorrow initiatives. This work is supported with field work aimed at improving the irrigation and nutrient use efficiencies of carrots and other vegetables through a DAWA/HAL funded project, investment of $200,000. • DAWA has apple, plum and Australian plant breeding programs aimed at developing new superior varieties that will be commercialised to give WA producers a competitive advantage in the marketplace. These projects have released varieties such as the apples Cripps Pink (Pink Lady ® ) and Cripps Red (Sundowner®), that have had a positive impact on local industry and are well recognised in International markets, investment of $500,000.

[Supplementary Information No A56.] Question: Dr S.C. Thomas: I draw the parliamentary secretary's attention to services 3 and 4 of the service and appropriation summary on page 207 of the Budget Statements. Service 3 is the amount allocated for biosecurity. The actual budget for this item seems to always be between $60 million and $65 million. Therefore, why does the government continue to budget less than $50 million for biosecurity? Service 4 is the amount allocated to the Rural Business Development Corporation for which the government budgets about $3.8 million but spends between $8.5 million and $9.5 million. Why is there such a discrepancy between budgets and activities in those areas? Answer: The reduction from 2003-04 Actual to 2004-05 Budget mainly relates to the transfer of the Australian Quarantine Inspection Services to the Commonwealth in 2004-05 ($4.6m), and additional funds that were available in 2003-04 (as a result of carryover from 2002-03) for activities including biosecurity preparedness activities, foot and mouth activities and work on the new Agriculture Management Bill ($3.4m in total). The 2004-05 budget was also lower due to the Red Imported Fire Ants funding need reducing by $0.9m before additional funds are again made available in 2005-06. The higher 2004-05 estimated actual (in comparison to the 2004-05 published budget) is mainly due to once-off additional European House Borer funding ($7.6m), as well as once-off funding for the Eradication of Cane Toads, Weed Control in the South West, Controlling Wild Dogs in Kalgoorlie, Surveillance and Control of Footrot, Locust Outbreak and the Windidda Station Rescue Package being approved during the 2004-05 financial year ($2.4m in total). In addition, there was higher than expected industry funding ($1.4m) as well as Cattle Industry Compensation funds being utilised for the implementation of the National Livestock Identification System ($1m). The 2005-06 budget falls back to the normal operational level as the once-off funding listed above for 2004-05 cease. There is also a reduced estimate for industry funding as a portion of current projects cease in 2005-06 and new industry funding has not yet been determined. This reduction is offset partially by additional funding for Red Imported Fire Ants and Animal Biosecurity activities.

Thomas: I seek some supplementary information. I seek a breakdown of what the Department of Agriculture spends on the beef industry. It is my understanding that although the beef industry is a big industry in terms of exports, it tends to be low priority for the department. I refer no so much to its activity, but to the amount of money spent on the industry. Could a brief comment be made? Can some information be provided about where expenditure is directed in the industry? Answer: Agricultural Beef Budget 2005/2006 Extra $200,000.00 will be broken up as follows: $60,000 Focus on the development of the beef supply chain (Support a Supply Chain Development Officer to work closely with industry segments to increase the consistency of supply and quality of beef.) $45,000 Improved feed base through the introduction of alternative feed sources in the annual pasture system. $45,000 Increasing producers skills and innovative capacity in the Northern Agricultural Region. A relatively new region for agricultural beef production with about 60 pastoralist (of recent times) purchasing beef enterprises in this region.

Omodei: In summary, what is the timetable for completion of the saleyards? How much land has been sold at Midland? I understand the proceeds were to go towards the new saleyard. When can we expect the saleyard to be complete? Is there an allocation towards the road infrastructure leading from the east? Answer: Timetable for relocation Livestock sales are expected to be conducted at Muchea by the end of 2006. The Western Australian Meat Industry Authority (WAMIA) confirms that the development is on schedule to meet the 2006 operational date. Land sales WAMIA have a number of land holdings including 50 ha on Bushmead Rd, Hazelmere. 16.4 ha of the Hazelmere lot has been sold. All WAMIA holdings at Midland and Hazelmere will be progressively sold and all the proceeds are required for the new livestock saleyard development. The final lot to be sold will be the Crown Reserve occupied by the Midland Saleyard infrastructure. This land is in the Midland Redevelopment Authority planning area and will be sold once the replacement saleyards are operational. Funding for road infrastructure No funding is allocated for road infrastructure leading from the east. The WAMIA budget estimate for the total cost of establishing the replacement saleyard at Muchea is $16,342,000. The access road from the Great Northern Highway is estimated to cost $800,000 as part of this total. The following was provided without supplementary information number - Question: Mr P.D. Omodei: I refer the parliamentary secretary to the sixth dot point on page 224, which reads - An eradication program was commenced on a large infestation of prickly acacia … The eradication program is a cooperative effort … As a supplementary question and as a matter of interest, what was used to kill them? Answer: The chemical being used on prickly acacia is Garlon 600, which has as the active ingredient 600 grams per Litre triclopyr. All those involved with use of the product have been given Chem Cert training through Kununurra TAFE and are required to use protective clothing during operations. DIVISION 12: AGRICULTURE PROTECTION BOARD OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA The following has been provided as supplementary information but was not given a number - Question: Dr S.C. Thomas: I refer the parliamentary secretary to page 236 and the second dot point of the major achievements. Wild dog numbers are high, particularly in the southern and south east areas of the state. I am glad the [7 - 10 June 2005] E527 department refers to them as wild dogs and not dingoes. My understanding is that the government's baiting program has been reduced. Instead of baiting twice a year the government is looking at baiting once a year. Will the parliamentary secretary say whether that is a fact; and, if it is a fact, why is it occurring? Answer: WILD DOGS The objective of wild dog management is to minimise the adverse effects of wild dogs on primary production in agricultural and pastoral areas of Western Australia. This is achieved by destroying wild dogs within stocked country and by establishing a surrounding wild dog free buffer zone. The responsibility for wild dog control rests with the landholder (private and public) under the Agriculture and Related Resources Protection Act 1976. The Department of Agriculture has addressed the issues below as documented, as well as providing a service in coordinating control operations, training, and advising private landholders and leaseholders and Crown Land managers on wild dog management. BUDGET ALLOCATION The current budget allocation is $1.6m State funding plus $0.5m landholder funding via pastoral rates. Implementation of Review Recommendations Following an industry review of the wild dog program by the Agriculture Protection Board a number of issues were highlighted and recommendations made. The recommendations are being progressed including: • Zone Control Authorities (ZCAs) are reviewing aerial baiting vs ground expenditure priorities. • Local and regional planning has been undertaken through the ZCAs. • The State Wild Dog Management Advisory Committee (SWDMAC) has members representing agricultural, pastoral, indigenous, mining and government land managers as well as local government and the RSPCA. • A State Wild Dog Strategy is being finalised following a public comments period. This will be distributed to ZCA for feedback and development of Regional Management Plans. • Formation of a Joint Venture Bait Production Unit (JVBPU) with CALM, DAWA, APB is progressing with the development of a Business Plan and Memorandum of Understanding. • Legislative proposal to enable Zone Control Authorities (ZCAs) to raise additional rates on a zonal basis. • More community based dogging groups are being formed to address local problems. Dogger training • A nationally recognised Course composition and Program now developed with Central West TAFE at Geraldton based on three months duration (2 months contact + 1 month revision/practice). • First intake of three trainees graduated in December 2004. • Second intake planned for mid 2005. Indemnity insurance for Declared Animal Groups • DAWA has identified a broker who can provide insurance cover at a reasonable cost ($1700 for $20 million indemnity). Australian Pesticide and Veterinary Medicines Authority Review (APVMA) of 1080 • WA Whole of Government documentation on scope completed and submitted. APVMA currently reviewing with public submission document to be released in June 2005. Government is committed to ongoing support of private and public land managers in their management of the impact of wild dogs. The Department will continue to support the management of wild dogs with emphasis on research and development, implementation of legislation, and building community capacity and capability. The Department will also progress the upgrade of bait manufacturing facilities and industry review of the upgrade and extension of the State Barrier Fence. The following publications are available from the Department of Agriculture for information: Wild Dog Control: Facts Behind the Strategies–July 2003 – Misc Pub 23/2003 Western Australian Wild Dog Management Strategy 2004 – Misc Pub 22/2004 Evaluation of the Effectiveness and Efficiency of the Wild Dog Control Program in Western Australia A copy of these publications has been forwarded to the Member.

Day asked about the cost to the Department of the 1 June 2005 meeting of delegates of the Australian Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Union and whether schools were reimbursed for those costs. Answer: The approximate cost to the Department of providing relief for all 478 ALHMU delegates from the metropolitan area to attend the meeting on 1 June 2005 would be $44 100, however relief would not have been required for all 478 delegates. Schools were not reimbursed for this amount as they are provided with annual funding through a salary pool to cover all relief. DIVISION 17: COUNTRY HIGH SCHOOL HOSTELS AUTHORITY [Supplementary Information No A27.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked why interest revenue for 2003-04 is $46,000 but has gone to a budgeted $22,000 in 2004-05. Answer: Although the budgeted amount was $22,000 for 2004-05, the estimated actual for 2004-05 is $48,000. Prior to 2003-04 only interest from residential college ‘investment’ accounts was reported under ‘Interest Revenue’. Interest from residential college ‘operating’ accounts was reported under ‘Other Revenue’. When auditing the 2003-04 financial statements the Auditor General’s Office asked the Authority to combine all interest. Therefore the 2004-05 estimated actual interest figure and the out years have been adjusted accordingly. [Supplementary Information No A28.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked why employee expenses increased but superannuation contributions decreased in 2004-05.

E544 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

Answer: The budget for 2004-05 superannuation expenses was based on the employer paying nine per cent of salary costs. Investigation into the actual superannuation expense cost for 2003-04 revealed that a small percentage of employees are members of the Gold State Superannuation Fund where the employer contributes twelve per cent of salary costs rather than nine. Superannuation expenses for 2004-05 and the out years will need to be slightly adjusted upwards to reflect employee Gold State membership. DIVISION 19: EDUCATION SERVICES [Supplementary Information No A29.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked for a list of new non-government schools approved for the 2003-04 financial year. Answer: For 2003-04, the two new schools to receive approval were the Langford Islamic College, a kindergarten to year 7 school at Langford; and the Association for the Blind Kindergarten, a kindergarten and pre-primary school at Victoria Park.

DIVISION 21: REGISTRAR, WESTERN AUSTRALIAN INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS COMMISSION [Supplementary Information No B21.] Question: Mr T.R. Buswell asked the minister about the project of reviewing, improving and consolidating all the commission’s awards . . . as part of that process . . . have any awards been reviewed, modernised or updated? Have any awards come through the processes of the commission and been finalised over the past four years? Answer: The Commission has been actively working with the parties to awards and also the minister, TLC and CCI since September 2002 to update and modernise awards. To date 23 awards have been comprehensively updated and modernised under s.40, related to the Commission’s work under s.40B.

The first hearing set general parameters and its lawfulness was challenged by one of the parties. The Chief Commissioner who chaired that hearing has now retired and the new Chief Commissioner is convening a further Commission in Court Session to finalise two substantial awards* which will serve as a precedent. *Metal Trades (General) Award 1966, Cleaners and Caretakers Award 1969 DIVISION 23: WATER AND RIVERS COMMISSION [Supplementary Information No B22.] Question: Mr G.A. Woodhams asked whether the Minister could provide the funding components for the initiatives at Pithara, Morawa and Beacon, based on what the government agencies are putting in and what we know of funding that comes from other sources. Answer: The Engineering Evaluation Initiative (EEI) is a $4 million initiative from 2003-04 to 2006-07, that was developed as a partnership between the Department of Environment and landholders interested in engineering options for salinity management. The projects such as Pithara, Beacon and Morawa receive additional funding from the landholders as well as from the Water and Rivers Commission salinity program. The funding contributions for Pithara, Morawa and Beacon for 2004-05 and 2005-06 are outlined below. The funding components for the Pithara drain are $187,240 of Engineering Evaluation Initiative funds, $30,750 of Water and Rivers Commission support funds, and $64,900 of landholder contributions. The funding components for the Beacon drain and evaporation basin are $277,300 of Engineering Evaluation Initiative funds, $24,600 of Water and Rivers Commission support funds, and $233,050 of landholder contributions. The funding components for the Morawa drain and evaporation basin are $149,070 of Engineering Evaluation Initiative funds, $26,400 of Water and Rivers Commission support funds, and $82,900 of landholder contributions. Water Corporation [Supplementary Information No B23.] Question: Mr P.D. Omodei asked whether the minister could provide details of the non-metropolitan Infill Sewerage Program for 2005-06.

[Supplementary Information No B24.] Question: Mr P.D. Omodei referred to the capital works contribution and the Water Corporation’s depreciation of assets, and asked whether the Minister could provide details of: 1. the amount of money currently held in that account; 2. how often the generated funds have been used to assist in funding the Water Corporation’s capital works program; 3. the total funds withdrawn from the account in the last financial year and the next financial year; 4. which capital works programs were funded by this account; and 5. were the funds used for any purpose other than capital works. Answer: 1. The Water Corporation does not hold the depreciation money aside in a separate account. Depreciation is included in the calculation of Operating Profit and is intended as a measure of the consumption of capital assets during the year. However, it needs to be added back when calculating the cashflow available from operations as it is a non-cash item. The Corporation’s capital works program is funded through a combination of cashflow from operations and borrowing. This makes depreciation appear to form part of the sources of funding for capital, but it is not treated separately from any other item contributing to cashflow from operations. 2. Cashflow from operations is applied to fund capital investment every year. 3. As noted in the answer to 1) above, there is no separate account kept to withdraw funds from. 4. The total cashflow generated from operations is applied generally to the capital works program. 5. Not applicable. [Supplementary Information No B25.] Question: Dr K.D. Hames asked whether the Minister could provide details of: 1. how extra borrowings in 2005-06 affect the total borrowings for the Water Corporation; and 2. the capital expenditure and total borrowings from 1997 to present. Answer: 1. Without the expenditure on the Perth Seawater Desalination the $396 million estimated borrowings for 2005/06 would be reduced to $81 million. Estimated total borrowings at the end of 2005/06 would be reduced from $1,587 million to $1,272 million. 2. Details of the capital expenditure and new borrowings from 1997 to the present are as follows:

Source: Water Corporation Annual Reports [Supplementary Information No B26.] Question: Mr M.P. Murray asked whether the Minister could provide details on when the water supply to the new subdivision in Harvey would be completed. Answer: The subdivision referred to in the question is not new, however, it does have a small number of lots pending release by the developer (LandCorp). The lots in question will require the developer’s engineers to design and construct the water supply infrastructure to cope with the high elevation of the land. This will require a booster pump arrangement. To date, the Water Corporation has not been requested to review designs, and therefore timing issues related to the subdivision should be directed to the developer.

DIVISION 24: COMMISSIONER FOR EQUAL OPPORTUNITY [Supplementary Information No B2.] Question: Ms S.E. Walker asked by way of supplementary information, if the Minister could provide statistics on how many cases before the Equal Opportunity Commission go to mediation rather than litigation. (State Administrative Tribunal to provide information). Answer: Of the matters finalised in the Tribunal during the period July, 2004 to June 7, 2005 76% were settled with the assistance of the Commission’s legal officers instead of proceeding on to litigation.

DIVISION 30: HEALTH [Supplementary Information No A59.] Question: Dr K.D. Hames requested by way of supplementary information, the major issues in the Forward Estimates for capital, as currently proposed. Answer: Health’s 13-year capital program, first presented in last year’s Budget, has been framed around the broad strategy and vision from the Reid report. At this stage, it is indicative only and it has always been the intention that the Department’s capital program will be underpinned by detailed clinical services planning. Currently, Government is engaged in active consultation with the community and the Health sector on a Clinical Service Framework, which has been based on the Reid strategy and vision. Following this consultation, a detailed Clinical Service Plan will be produced which will be the guiding document for Health infrastructure planning. Until the Plan has been bedded down it would be premature to undertake detailed planning on the costs, timing and delivery of the major infrastructure projects. However, based on current indications, it is planned that the adult tertiary hospitals and peripheral general hospitals will develop as follows: - Fiona Stanley (Southern Tertiary) Hospital - Stage 1 - approximately 600 beds at Murdoch. - Construction commencement Q1 2008. - Construction completion Q4 2011. - Central Tertiary Hospital - Stage 1 - to take beds to approximately 980 beds on SCGH campus. - Construction commencement Q4 2008. - Construction completion Q4 2011. - Joondalup Health Campus - A new co-located private hospital of approximately 150 beds is planned to be built by Q4 2008. - At the same time, it is expected the emergency department will be doubled in size, 30 new mental health beds will be added (15 public and 15 private) and a new dental clinic constructed. - The freed up private beds in the new hospital will be used to expand public inpatient capacity. - As a result, by 2009, it is planned there will be approximately 350 public beds available in addition to the 150 private beds. - Swan District Hospital - Stage 1 - to take beds to approximately 325. - Construction commencement Q2 2008. - Construction completion Q4 2010. - Armadale Hospital - Stage 1 - expansion of emergency department (bed requirements in the main met by former Galliers Hospital until 2015). - Construction commencement Q1 2007. Construction completion Q4 2007. - Rockingham Hospital - Stage 1 - to take beds to approximately 240. - Construction commencement Q4 2006. - Construction completion Q1 2009.

Hames requested by way of supplementary information, a response on the provision of the Artificial Limb Service Answer: The transfer of the Western Australian Artificial Limb Scheme (WAALS) to the Rehabilitation Division at Shenton Park Campus (SPC) is part of the Statewide Rehabilitation Services Plan. This relocation will facilitate a higher level of support for this service than is achievable at its present location. It is envisaged that all existing services and arrangements provided by WAALS will remain intact. Accordingly the transfer only involves a change in reporting relationship and location. At this juncture no decision has been made on the purchase of the "Shap-maker" CAD-CAM machine. [Supplementary Information No A64.] Question: Dr K.D. Hames requested by way of supplementary information, an explanation on the discrepancy between "Years of Life Lost per 1,000 Population Due to Preventable Disease or Injury, Western Australia and Australia" as presented in 2004-05 Budget Papers and 2005-06 Budget Papers. Answer: A change was made in the presentation of the level of preventable death due to disease and injury as between the Western Australian and Australian populations in the 2004-05 and 2005-06 Budget Statements.

E552 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

The chart presented in the 2004-05 Budget Statements was based on data for persons aged less than 70 years of age. For the 2005-06 Budget Statements the data set was extended to include data for all persons, including those aged 70 years or older. The difference in the age groups included in the sample gave Western Australia improved reported outcomes relative to the total Australian population in two ways: Firstly, the inclusion of deaths of persons aged over 70 reduced the influence of early Aboriginal mortality upon the measure. Western Australia has a proportionally higher Aboriginal population, and the death rate from preventable diseases is higher among the Aboriginal population. Secondly, the inclusion of deaths of persons over 70 reduced the influence of motor vehicle accidents upon the results. Motor vehicle accidents mainly occur among young people, and Western Australia's motor vehicle accident rate is higher than that for Australia as a whole. The measure of premature mortality used in the chart in the 2005-06 Budget Statement is a recognised measure and is used internationally. The measure used is preferred because it better represents the incidence of preventable mortality for the community as a whole. The measure previously used was unduly sensitive to poor outcomes in particular sub- groups of the population. Additionally, the measure used in previous years' Budget Papers captured more "preventable" deaths that were outside the influence of the health sector. The measure in the 2005-06 Budget papers better represents the impact of Department of Health policies upon preventable deaths.

DIVISION 32: CONSERVATION AND LAND MANAGEMENT [Supplementary Information No B8.] Question: Dr G.G. Jacobs asked whether the Minister could provide details and supplementary documentation on CALM’s contribution to combating the wild dog problem? Answer: CALM undertakes wild dog control in the Pilbara, Midwest, eastern Wheatbelt and southern rangelands (Goldfields and South Coast) areas. The work is carried out consistent with the State Wild Dog Management Strategy and mostly in partnership with neighbours, Shires and the Department of Agriculture. CALM carries out integrated control work on unallocated Crown land (UCL) and CALM-managed lands. These works are also integrated with wild dog control work on pastoral lease lands and on private property. In the eastern agricultural area CALM spent $102,000 in 2004/05, mostly through the services of a dogger contracted to CALM. At least 46 dogs were killed in 2004/05, double the number killed in 2003/04. CALM has also arranged for the dogger employed by the Declared Species Group in this area to have access to Crown lands to undertake control work. Aerial baiting work is also carried out on CALM-managed nature reserves. In the southern rangelands CALM spent $155,000 on wild dog control on UCL and $30,000 on CALM-managed lands. CALM is finalising a three year dogging contract in this area. CALM officers attend Zone Control Authority and Declared Animal Group meetings. CALM’s Goldfields Regional Manager is a member of the State Wild Dog Management Advisory Committee. In the Salmon Gums area, where a Declared Animal Group has been established, CALM contributed $5000 to the group in 2004/05 and also donated signs to the value of $2500. In the Pilbara, Gascoyne and Murchison areas CALM contributes to aerial baiting operations that cover pastoral lands, UCL and CALM-managed lands. CALM also undertakes the Western Shield wildlife recovery program across approximately 3.5 million hectares of lands in the south west that are baited primarily for foxes, but also for feral cats and wild dogs. [Supplementary Information No B9.] Question: Mr P.D. Omodei asked the Minister to provide details about service 4, parks and visitor services, on page 521. The number of full-time equivalents in this area is rising by six. The member also asked the Minister to provide details about the second line item in the table on income, which is estimated to be $15.258 million in 2005-06. This amount is down on the estimated actual figure for 2004-05 and is significantly down on the 2003-04 amount. The member also asked the Minister to explain where those funds come from and why income has dropped off, given that visitor numbers should be increasing. Answer: Further breakdown of Service 4: Parks and Visitor Services income is provided in the following table.

Sub Total – Tourism and Recreation Income This category of income relates to direct charges to visitors and lease fees. The 2003-04 Actual of $9,492,969 is higher than the 2004-05 Budget of $9,300,000 principally due to the receipt of a one off back rental payment of $146,156 for the Lowendal Islands lease. The 2004-05 Estimated Actual and 2005-06 Budget Estimate of $9,100,000 are lower than the 2004-05 budget of $9,300,000 and this principally reflects the forecast lower revenues expected from the Yanchep National Park following the severe wildfire experienced in the park in January 2005. 2. Recoupable Services This item relates to income from services provided to private organisations, State Government Departments, CALM staff and other miscellaneous receipts. The 2003-04 Actual of $2,634,374 is higher than the estimates provided for 2004-05 and 2005-06 of $1,700,000. At the time of preparing the budget estimates, the level of recoupable services to be undertaken by the Department in the forthcoming year is unknown and can vary significantly from year to year. A conservative nominal budget of $1.7 million has been included for estimate purposes. 3. Main Roads WA Tourism Road Grant Main Roads WA provides an annual grant to the Department of $2 million for tourism road maintenance and improvements. There is no variation in the income figures for this category. 4. Grants from State Government Departments The 2003-04 Actual of $1,263,824 is represented principally by a payment of $952,000 received from the Ministry for Planning and Infrastructure for capital works in Regional Parks and an amount of $308,000 received from Main Roads WA for tourism road works. Both of these payments received in 2003-04 were one off payments and consequently no estimate for further grants from State Government Departments has been allowed for in both 2004-05 and 2005-06. 5. Commonwealth Grants The 2003-04 Actual is represented principally by Commonwealth funding for the Shark Bay World Heritage area of $122,150, Purnululu World Heritage area of $80,800 and for the employment of indigenous trainees $62,208. The 2004-05 Budget provided for an amount of $100,000 principally for the continuation of Commonwealth funding for indigenous trainees however the 2004-05 Estimated Actual includes an additional amount not previously budgeted for of $228,000 for the Purnululu World Heritage area. 6. Other This category comprises publication and map sales, interest, proceeds from asset sales and compensation. A less conservative estimate was used for the 2005-06 Budget Estimates based on 2003-04 and 2004-05 revenue trends.

DIVISION 33: BOTANIC GARDENS AND PARKS AUTHORITY [Supplementary Information No B10.] Question: Mr J.N. Hyde has sought clarification of the amount of Rent Receipts detailed in the Authority’s Statement of Cashflow. Answer: The amount of Rent actually received in the 2003-2004 financial year is shown as $324,000 rising to $1,006,000 in 2004-2005. He also questioned the change in value of GST in 2004-2005 from the prior year. The reason for the large increase of Rent Receipts in 2004-2005 is due to a re-organisation within the Authority’s accounting methodology and the recognition that a large amount of funds received in that year were more properly recognised as rental receipts and not Other receipts as recorded in the prior year. The receipts for User Charges and Fees increasing from 2004-2005 into the out-years is due to the opening of “Aspects of Kings Park” and its impact on the amount of funds received by the Authority. Goods and Services Tax decreased from $1.1m in 2003-2004 to $0.5m in 2004-2005 due to a change in the accounting treatment of GST in the Authority’s books of account to more accurately reflect the impost of the GST. The estimate for GST payments and receipts in the outyears is $505,000. DIVISION 34: ENVIRONMENT [Supplementary Information No B11.] Question: Ms K. Hodson-Thomas asked for supplementary information regarding concerns of breaches of World Health Organisation levels and the number of times the standard has been breached. Answer: The member asked how many occasions in the past financial year has the monitoring shown levels above acceptable levels set by the World Health Organisation The World Health Organisation have developed and published ambient air quality guidelines (WHO 2000, Guidelines for Air Quality. Geneva, Switzerland). It should be noted that these guidelines are not standards. The WHO documentation states that “The purpose of the Guidelines for Air Quality is to provide a basis for protecting public health from adverse effects of air pollution and for eliminating, or reducing to a minimum, those contaminants that are known to be, or likely to be, hazardous to human health and well being. The Guidelines should provide background information for nations engaged in setting air quality standards, although their use is not restricted to this. These Guidelines are not intended as standards. In moving from guidelines to standards, prevailing exposure levels and environmental, social, economic and cultural conditions in a nation or region should be taken into account. In certain circumstances there may be valid reasons to pursue policies which will result in pollutant concentrations above or below the guideline values.” In Australia, the National Environment Protection Council made the National Environment Protection Measure for Ambient Air Quality (NEPM) in 1998. The NEPM sets standards to be met by the year 2008 for carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide, lead and particles. Western Australia has adopted the NEPM. The Department of Environment annually publishes an air monitoring report that details results and makes comparisons to the relevant standards. These published annual reports also fulfil the State’s reporting requirements under the NEPM. During the 2004-2005 financial year (up to 10 June 2005) the following NEPM exceedances occurred:

4 events of particles PM10 (particles with an equivalent aerodynamic diameter of 10 micrometers or less) above the NEPM standard at Bunbury and South Lakes; 2 events at Caversham; and 1 event at Duncraig.

4 events of particles PM2.5 (particles with an equivalent aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 micrometers or less) above the NEPM advisory standard at Bunbury; and 1 event at Duncraig.

All the PM10 NEPM exceedances were associated with the production of smoke from vegetation fires, with the exception of one exceedance at Caversham which was likely linked to farming activities in the field adjacent to the monitoring station. The PM2.5 NEPM exceedances were all associated with the production of smoke from vegetation fires. The term "vegetation fires" describes bushfires, fuel reduction burns and fire suppression activities. The Department does not routinely compare monitoring results with the WHO guidelines and considerable effort is required to extract such data. That work is under way and I will provide the information to the member as soon as possible. [Supplementary Information No B12.] Question: Ms K. Hodson-Thomas asked for the Minister to provide supplementary information about the funding levels from the Perth air quality management plan for major initiative in 2005-06. Answer: Major initiatives in 2005-2006 relate to the key areas of managing vehicle emissions and managing smoke from domestic wood heaters, supported by the air quality monitoring program. This includes: [7 - 10 June 2005] E555

DIVISION 45: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT [Supplementary Information No A1.] Question: Ms S.E. Walker asked for clarification on the discrepancy between the Chief Justice’s figures and the figures the Minister provided. The Minister undertook to seek explanation for the difference in those two figures. Answer: The difference in the data between the Department for Community Development and the Department of Justice is due to the Department of Justice recording applications from both the Department for Community Development and the WA Police Service and also including applications for the Release from Wardship applications under Section 47 of the Child Welfare Act 1947. The Department of Justice has advised that in the years 2001-02 and 2002-03 only Perth Children’s Court data was reported whereas in 2003-04 data from all registries was reported. The total Care and Protection Application data from both Department for Justice and Department for Community Development indicates a decline in the number of Care and Protection applications between 2001-02 and 2003-04. The number of applications recorded declined by 11% for the Department for Community Development and declined by 10% for the Department of Justice. [Supplementary Information No A2.] Question: Ms K.

The Department currently funds the following non government services in Onslow: • Onslow Occasional Child Care Association Inc to provide the Occasional Child Care Service. • Onslow Youth Centre Inc to provide the Onslow Youth Centre. • Shire of Ashburton to provide the domestic violence supported accommodation women’s refuge service. This service is funded through the joint Commonwealth/State Supported Accommodation Assistance Program (SAAP). [Supplementary Information No A3.] Question: Mr A.J. Simpson asked for an explanation of the figure of $282 000 listed under other expenses on page 792. Answer: $110 000 for audit fees and approximately $100 000 for bank fees. [Supplementary Information No A4.] Question: Ms S.E. Walker asked how many children were taken into care and protection as a result of the 320 care and protection applications filed in the Perth Children’s Court in 2003-04, including how many children were taken into care. Answer: The Department for Community Development Annual Report figures for the number of care and protection applications over the last three years are: • 2001-02 = 346 • 2002-03 = 309 • 2003-04 = 306 The figures are compiled in mid July each year and are subject to change due to late data entry. The actual numbers now recorded in the Department's information system have changed slightly by two additional applications in each year. As at 16 May 2005 the Department's data is that: • 2001-02; 348 care applications resulted in 261 Care and Protection Orders (wardship). 87 are withdrawn.

[Supplementary Information No A6.] Question: Ms S.E. Walker asked whether the Department for Community Development’s local office has had any recent reports on petrol sniffing in Warburton. Answer: It does not appear that petrol sniffing has been reported as an issue in Warburton at this time, nor has been for some time. [Supplementary Information No A7.] Question: Ms S.E. Walker: Can the minister provide a breakdown of the funds that have been provided for SafeCare over the past three years? Answer: The recurrent annual funding provided by the Department for Community Development to SafeCare Inc for the Adolescents, Families and Bunbury Child Sexual Abuse Treatment Services is as follows: 2002-03 $218,246 2003-04 $223,702 2004-05 $230,639. The differences are due to indexation. [Correction to information provided during the hearing]: During the hearing the minister stated that funding is provided for two safe houses in Laverton and Leonora (see Hansard page 33). However, funding is provided for the Laverton Crisis Intervention Service only. DIVISION 47: DISABILITY SERVICES COMMISSION [Supplementary Information No B5.] Question: Mr J.E.

DIVISION 50: WESTERN AUSTRALIAN TOURISM COMMISSION [Supplementary Information No B15.] Question: Mr R.F. Johnson asked whether the minister could provide information on the funding that the government has received for the previous year through the Australian Tourism Development Program. In addition, will he provide the information on whether any estimates have been established on the level of funding that Western Australia may receive in the current year. Answer: Illustrated in Table 1 below, is a list of all Western Australian successful applicants for the 2004-05 Australian Tourism Development Program (ATDP) as administrated by AusIndustry. It should be noted that this is not funding that Tourism Western Australia has received but funding for tourism related projects in Western Australia from the ATDP. Excluding the $220 000 for the multi-state “Desert Knowledge” project Western Australian organisations were granted in excess of 16.5% of the total funding awarded in 2004. No forecast has been made on the level of success WA will have in this highly competitive program in the current round as it has not closed yet. Further this decision is made at the federal level assessing each application competitively in the context of the criteria for the program. Tourism Western Australia has been working to encourage and assist organisations from WA who are contemplating applications.

Answer: The Department of Education and Training has adopted a policy of air-conditioning all schools within a zone established to reflect the level of discomfort of occupants and defined by the Bureau of Meteorology’s ‘Relative Strain Index’ which takes account of factors such as temperature, wind and atmospheric pressure. The area not included in the zone can be broadly described as the coastal strip from Geraldton to Perth, most of the metropolitan area (except the eastern portion), and the lower southern part of the State. The Department of Education and Training has carried out a program through the Department of Housing and Works to air-condition all schools within the zone that were not already air-conditioned. The program was implemented over a three year period with all schools in the zone now air-conditioned. The program was completed in the 2003/2004 year. All new school buildings constructed in the air-conditioning zone will be air- conditioned. [Supplementary Information No B30.] Question: Mr T.R. Sprigg asked whether the Minister could explain the reason for the blow-out. The budget amount for 2004-2005 is $49.402 million, and the estimated actual for 2004-2005 is $55.212 million. This is a blow-out of some $6 million, or 13 percent. Answer: The total cost of service from the 2004-2005 budget total of $49.402 million to the 2004-2005 estimated actual total of $55.212 million was increased by $5.810 million. The increases were mainly the result of new funding provided by government for specific project expenditure and increased activity in the services provided by the department. There was also some project carryover activity as a result of under spending in the 2003-2004 financial year. The key significant expense item movements for the total cost of services between the 2004-2005 budget and the 2004- 2005 estimated actual are detailed below.

Cowper asked whether the Minister could provide an update on the construction program and the time lines for those police stations in remote locations, which was recommended by the Gordon inquiry. Answer: The following table summarises the current status, planned occupation date and estimated total cost (ETC) for the eight multi-function police facilities.

Cowper asked whether the minister could provide a detailed list of those projected works for the next 12 months ($310 million worth of the public buildings program). Answer: The Department of Housing and Works manages the delivery of much of the state’s non-residential building program on behalf of government agencies. Some agencies manage their own works under their own legislative powers. The department typically manages such works in the range of $250 - $300 million per year. At the time of budget submissions for the 2005-06 year the department estimated that it would be required to manage projects that would incur expenditure of $310 million based on expenditure levels in previous years and the department’s expectations of the size of the government’s non-residential building portion of the capital works program. The government has undertaken to address the state’s infrastructure needs in a positive and pro-active manner and has included record levels of capital funding to address these needs. A review of the published budget indicates that the department will in fact be required to manage projects with expenditure in 2005-06 of about $498 million. The number of budget line items that the department will manage numbers about 235. Attachment A lists those budget items that the department expects to manage.

Included in the chart are the anticipated completions for 2004/2005; these figures are based on the estimates included in the program and budget review conducted in March 2005. Regional Upgrade Strategy The location of the properties under this program is shown at Attachment 2. I point out that the refurbishment numbers exceed the planned number of 50. However this was due to the fact that the Regional Upgrade Strategy replaced an existing program, known as the Regional Refurbishment Program, and the department had already commenced refurbishing properties as part of this program. As both programs targeted the upgrade of older stock in country towns it is difficult to distinguish the figures.

[Supplementary Information No B35.] Question: Mr G.M. Castrilli asked whether the Minister could provide information on the build capacity for public housing in Bunbury and include information on the future build estimates and the existing public housing capacity.

E574 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

Answer: The Department of Housing and Works retains information in zones and therefore is unable to provide information for Bunbury specifically. The information provided in this answer is for the Bunbury zone, which includes the localities of Australind, Bunbury, Dalyellup and Eaton.

Unfortunately the department has not been able to supplement its landholdings by the purchase land in private land developments due to restrictive building covenants that require minimum construction sizes or styles in excess of the department’s standards. In other instances private developers simply refuse to sell to DHW for public housing purposes. Attempts by the department to increase stock numbers by purchasing established homes has been ineffective due to a highly volatile private market characterised by selling prices exceeding property valuations.

E576 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

[Supplementary Information No A31.] Question: Mr G.M. Castrilli asked - Which inquiries were outstanding in 2004-05 and are any inquiries that were begun in previous years still outstanding? Answer: The Department’s Investigation section has received 156 complaints for the period 1 July 2004 to 17 June 2005 During 2004-05, the Investigations section completed 199 assessments. As at 17 June 2005, there were 39 outstanding complaints and of these, three matters relate to the 2003-04 financial year. In two instances, an assessment has been completed and a copy of the Report referred to the local government for comment prior to finalisation, in accordance with natural justice and due process principles. In regard to the third matter, a preliminary assessment was completed in November 2004. In January 2005, the Director General authorised an inquiry under Part 8 of the Act. The Inquiry report is being drafted. It is intended that this report be completed by 30 June 2005. Of the remaining 36 complaints, only four are older than six months. In each case, the assessment is well progressed and should be concluded by the end of July 2005. The 32 incomplete assessments are less than four months old. In addition to the assessment of externally generated complaints, the Investigation Section is also assessing 39 internally generated matters relating to failure on the part of elected members and designated local government officers to lodge primary and annual financial interest returns within the prescribed timeframe. A management plan has been developed to address these matters. These matters have been reported to the Crime and Corruption Commission. [Supplementary Information No A32.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked - I would like to know about the unsuccessful applications that were made for each of those funds and the amount of those funds. Answer: During 2004-05, Regional Investment Fund approvals were made for the Regional Headworks Program (RHP), the Indigenous Infrastructure Projects Program (IIPP) and the Regional Development Scheme (RDS). The information relating to RHP and IIPP is current, however, the information relating to RDS is at the last reporting period provided by the Development Commissions - to 31 December 2004.

E582 [ASSEMBLY - Estimates Committees - Supplementary Information]

[Supplementary Information No A33.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked - Will the minister supply details of the funding applications made by each of the regional development commissions? Answer: The information requested forms part of the budget process and is subject to Cabinet In Confidence. This information cannot therefore be provided. [Supplementary Information No A34.] Question: Mr M.W. Trenorden asked – I refer to the third dot point under Major Achievements for 2004-2005 on page 967. I do not find anywhere in the budget a direct allocation of funds for programs such as the two telecentres for remote indigenous communities and the eight modular interactive telecommunication environments – MITES. Answer: TELECENTRE SUPPORT BRANCH BUDGET 2004/05 $

TELECENTRE SUPPORT BRANCH SALARIES AND SUPERANNUATION (10.5 FTEs) 3 are presently based in the regions. 667,000 TELECENTRE SUPPORT BRANCH NET OPERATIONAL BUDGET 1,860,000

TOTAL TELECENTRE SUPPORT BRANCH EXPENDITURE 2,527,000 The Department has established eight Modular Interactive Telecommunications Environments (MITES) in the following remote communities: Nullagine Djarindjin Irrunytju (at Wingellina) Jarlmadangah Burru Noonkanbah Tjuntjuntjara Warmun Billiluna The Department provides each MITE with a $20,000 salary grant annually to support a minimum of 20 hours opening each week (total for 8 is $160,000 annually). In addition, each MITE has access to the full services of the Telecentre Support Branch and a dedicated officer responsible for the North West. DIVISION 58: LAND INFORMATION [Supplementary Information No A35.] Question: Mr G.M. Castrilli asked for a breakdown of the intangibles and non-current assets in the balance sheet as reported on page 988 of the Budget Statements. Answer: The accounting standard setting bodies within Australia have elected to adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) from 2005/06 and the notable effect on DLI is that internally developed system software that previously was included in Plant and Equipment will be classified as Intangible Assets. Intangibles are therefore a new classification with Non-Current Assets. Non-Current Assets, including Intangibles, are comprised as follows: NON-CURRENT ASSETS AS AT 30 JUNE 2006 $’000 $’000 Amounts receivable for services - Depreciation Holding Account 18,415 Plant and Equipment Equipment 803 Computer equipment 7,171 Leasehold improvements 519 Total Plant and Equipment 8,542 Intangibles Existing in-house developed systems 7,586 (SmartRegister, SmartPlan, BackCapture) Shared Land Information Platform (04/05 & 05/06) 4,991 [7 - 10 June 2005] E583

DIVISION 61: JUSTICE [Supplementary Information No A16.] Question: Mr R.F. Johnson asked whether the minister could provide details of how many complaints have been received about unauthorised TOMS access that are yet to be investigated Answer: Internal Investigations Unit of the Department of Justice currently has five cases relating to unauthorised TOMS access that are yet to be investigated. Additional Information: The response indicates that the Department of Justice currently has five investigations that are yet to be investigated, however four of the cases were assigned on 13 June 2005 with an anticipated completion date of August 2005. The remaining case will be assigned later this month and is anticipated to be completed by September 2005. Of the five cases, three relate to Prison Officers accessing information from TOMS and providing that information to Prisoners. One case relates to a prisoner accessing information on other prisoners. The final case relates to Community Corrections Officers relaying information to drug dealers in the community. [Supplementary Information No A17.] Question: Mr R.F. Johnson asked the minister whether he could provide details of how often are prisoners computers checked (Part answer given was that they were checked by local security in prisons, based on risk, backed by further technical expertise. Varied from site to site). Answer: Prisoners’ computers are purchased from Government-approved suppliers and are supplied directly to prisons as new items. Upon receipt and prior to their issue to prisoners, security seals are applied to the computers, to safeguard against items being secreted within the appliance. These security seals are checked during regular cell-searching procedures. Where an appliance is found to have been tampered with (ie. the seal has been removed or is damaged), the item is removed for inspection by technical staff. Similarly, where a risk is identified or intelligence has been received relating to the inappropriate use of computers, computers are removed from prisoners’ possession and forensically checked by technical staff, following which further investigations may be undertaken. In circumstances where computers are sent from the prison for repair or upgrade, technical staff undertake visual inspections of the units prior to sending them to the repairer. Technical staff again visually inspect these units upon their return to the prison. Apart from the aforementioned checks and inspections and in accordance with staff availability, prison officers with technical expertise undertake random checks of computers. Where concerns may arise during such checks, specialised technical staff may be called upon to undertake further examinations of individual computers. Work is already under way within the Department to reassess all matters relating to prisoner property and what is permitted to be in prisoners’ possession, including computers, with the view to establishing new standards and rigorous compliance monitoring. [Supplementary Information No A18.] Question: Mr B.J. Grylls asked whether the minister could provide details of the degree of interaction between CJJ staff and Merredin (How many times have CJJ travelled to Merredin – what is the level of service?) Answer: A Community Corrections Officer (CCO) and Senior Juvenile Justice Officer (SJJO) from Northam CJS office conduct fortnightly visits to service the Merredin Magistrate and Children Courts. The CCO and SJJO also undertakes supervision/action as required with adult and juvenile offenders located in the town area. The CCO also visits localities surrounding Merredin (including Southern Cross) when travelling the ‘Merredin circuit’. The SJJO conducts Juvenile Justice Team meetings as required. A casual Case Support Officer, who resides in Merredin, supervises and supports offenders undertaking community work and the eight projects in the area, in addition to assisting Northam CJS office as required.
