QUESTIONS ON NOTICE Tuesday, 5 May 1992 ASSEMBLY 2189 Tuesday, 5 May 1992 QUESTIONS ON NOTICE The following answers to questions on notice were circulated: BERTHING AND MOORING FEES Question No. 1295 Mr DICKINSON asked the Minister for Transport: In respect of the recent review of public berthing and mooring fees for small pleasure craft and fishing vessels, whether the government will implement a full enquiry into all aspects of boating with reference to fees, taxes and government policies, including an evaluation of the State's boating and related resources to determine how they could best be utilised to benefit the public and tourism? Mr SPYKER (Minister for Transport) - The answer is: The State Boating Council, an advisory panel comprising representatives of organisations and government departments associated with recreational boating, was established to provide advice to the Minister for Transport on recreational boating matters. In 1986-87 the State Boating Council undertook a review of fees applicable to recreational vessels charged under the provisions of the Marine Act. An extensive public consultation program was undertaken at the time, including regional public meetings and advertisements for written submissions. A revised fee structure for the registration of recreational vessels was introduced on 1 October 1991. A further review of fees charged under the Marine Act 1988 is not considered necessary. The State Boating Council provides advice on the expenditure of funds allocated for recreational boating activities including the improvement of facilities. The management of berths and moorings is the responsibility of the Minister responsible for Ports.
