9981 the Majority of the Available Information Used to Provide Family [Thursday, 1 July 1999] 9981 The majority of the available information used to provide family histories is factual but in urgent need of preservation and indexing. A number of record collections are incomplete as many records were destroyed in the past before their historical significance was realised. (d) FIRB commenced in July 1998 and has received 362 formal applications for family history. In addition, FIRB has dealt with 166 enquires relating to Aboriginal family histories and access to files. (e) The location of people seeking family histories has been: Metropolitan 175 Goldfields 28 Southern WA 41 Pilbara 43 Kimberley 16 Murchison 33 Interstate 26 (f) The customer group is Aboriginal. (g) Five of the seven staff employed by FIRB are Aboriginal. GOLD ROYALTY, REVENUE 3129. Ms ANWYL to the Minister for Resources Development: (1) Will the Minister advise what amount of revenue has been raised by the gold royalty since its inception? (2) Will the Minister advise what companies have paid the royalty and for each such company detail the amount paid and the number of ounces of gold produced and the source tenements? (3) What plans does the Government have to review the royalty and when? (4) What assessment is being done as to the impact of the gold royalty on the gold mining industry? (5) What is the projected income from the gold royalty for each of the financial years ending 30 June 1999 to 2004? (6) What assessment is being done as to the impact of the gold royalty on regional towns and cities, particularly as to - (a) the number of jobs available; (b) the multiplier effect of any job losses in the mining industry on other industries and businesses; and (c) the effect of job losses on size of population? (7) What ongoing consultation is occurring to gauge the effect of the gold royalty and state with whom and when? Mr BARNETT replied: (1) A total of $28.3 million was collected at 3 June 1999. (2) A total of 40 companies have paid royalties for a cumulative production of 5.2 million ounces of gold. A list of those companies is as follows - Acacia Resources Ltd - (Sunrise Dam) Alcoa of Australia Ltd - (Hedges Gold) Arimco Mining Pty Ltd - (Gidgee & Mt McClure) Centaur Mining & Exploration Ltd - (Mt Pleasant) Consolidated Gold Mines Ltd - (Bannockburn) Consolidated Gold NL - (Davyhurst) Croesus Mining NL - (Binduli) Davyhurst Project Pty Ltd - (Davyhurst) Equigold NL - (Dalgaranga) Forrestania Gold NL - (Bounty) Forsayth NL - (Lawlers) Gascoyne Gold Mines NL - (Yilgarn) Gemini Mining Pty Ltd - (Yilgarn) Herald Resources Ltd - (Coolgardie & Sandstone) Kundana Gold Pty Ltd - (Kundana) Great Central Mines Ltd - (Bronzewing, Jundee & Wiluna) Homestake Mining Co (Dariot) Kanowna Mines Ltd - (Golden Feather) Kanowna Belle Gold Mines - (Kanowna Belle) Kalgoorlie Consolidated Gold Mines - (Golden Mile) Mt Magnet Gold NL - (Hill 50) New Hampton Goldfields NL - (Jubilee) Newcrest Mining Ltd - (New Celebration & Telfer) Normandy Golden Grove Operations Pty Ltd - (Golden Grove) Normandy Kaltails Pty Ltd - (Kaltails) Pacmin Corp Ltd - (Tarmoola) Paddington Gold Pty Ltd - (Paddington) Paraburdoo Gold Project - (Mt Olympus) Peak Hill Resources - (Peak Hill) Perilya Mines NL - (Fortnum) 9982 [ASSEMBLY] Placer (Granny Smith) Pty Ltd - (Granny Smith) Plutonic Resources Ltd - (Mt Morgans) Plutonic Operations Ltd - (Plutonic) Resolute Ltd - (Chalice) Sons of Gwalia Ltd - (Copperhead, Laverton, Marvel Loch, Nevoria, Sons of Gwalia & Yilgarn Star) St Barbara Mines Ltd - (Bluebird) Troy Resources NL - (Cornishman) Wirralie Gold Mines Pty Ltd - (Big Bell) WMC Resources Ltd - (Agnew, Central Norseman & St Ives) Worsley Aluminia Pty Ltd - (Boddington) The commercial details of their gold returns are provided to the Department of Minerals and Energy in confidence. (3) None, but Government continues to monitor the gold royalty system. (4) In introducing the gold royalty Government undertook extensive analysis and consultation with industry. This lead to an agreement to defer the implementation of the gold royalty; inclusion of a trigger mechanism linked to the gold price; and an exemption for the first 2 500 ounces produced. The provisions also allow for temporary royalty relief should marginal producers prove that paying the royalty would cause them to cease operating. This is a reflection of the Government's commitment to the industry and its concern to see the gold industry continue to prosper, while ensuring that the State obtains a fair return for its non-renewable resources. (5) Projected gold royalty revenue for 1998/99 is $28.5 million and $37.5 million for 1999/2000. Mineral royalties, which include royalties from gold, form a major component of the Government's revenue from Regulatory Fees, Fines and Other Territorial sources. The Budget papers estimate that total revenue from these sources will be $1 031.1 million in 2000/01, $1 014.1 million in 2001/02 and $1 007.2 million in 2002/03, of which royalties make up about 65 to 70 per cent. I refer the member to the Budget papers for further details. (6)-(7) Refer to answer 4 above. MINISTER FOR SENIORS, ITINERARY OF TRIP TO DURBAN, SOUTH AFRICA 3134. Mr CARPENTER to the Minister for Seniors: Will the Minister advise of when an answer will be provided to question on notice No. 2446 of 18 March 1999, concerning her failure to table her itinerary for her trip to Durban, South Africa in October 1997? Mrs PARKER replied: I refer the member to Hansard - Parliamentary Debates Second Session 1999, page 8963 (Tuesday, 15 June 1999) question on notice 2446.

(2) Under what conditions can this land be sold? (3) Are there any plans to sell this land? Mr BARNETT replied: (1) The land on which Carawatha Primary School is located is owned by the Education Department of Western Australia. (2) Land would only be sold if it were surplus to departmental requirement. (3) No, however, the school community is currently engaged in the Local Area Education Planning process regarding possible options for future planning. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN 3138.

    THE MINERAL INDUSTRY OF AUSTRALIA By Travis Q. Lyday Australia is estimated to be the third largest producer of minerals owned by the Government, about 36% of Australia, and then only if and metals, excluding coal and petroleum, in the world, and its they had maintained a continuing association with the land being minerals industry is a leading catalyst in promoting the growth of the claimed. The Wik ruling threw the issue into confusion because it economy. The country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in fiscal year allowed the possibility of native title extending to land held under 1996-97 (July-June) was A$491.3 billion (about $359 billion). The lease, thus increasing the proportion of land open to possible native minerals industry represented $23.3 billion, or 6.5% of the title claim to about 78% of the country (Mining Journal, 1997c).
