I refer to question on notice 2424, answered on 3 September 2019, on the Department of Biosecurity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) officer living in the town of Augusta who had a change in working arrangements and is to commence working from the DBCA Margaret River work centre, and I ask: (a) has the job description for this officer been changed, or is it proposed to be changed; (b) if yes to (a), will the Minister please provide a copy of the original and the proposed new job description, and identify any changes; (c) if yes to (a), does the new job description require a change of residential address of the officer; (d) if yes to (c), why; (e) how much time does the existing officer currently spend in the DBCA Margaret River work centre and is this expected to change; (f) how much time does the existing officer currently spend in the Augusta region outside of the work centre; (g) how much time does the existing officer currently spend in other regions outside of the work centre, and in what regions does this work occur; and (h) is vehicle garaging a part of any proposed job description changes and, if so, what savings are expected to be made by these changes?
