Regarding redundancy payments in cases of termination of employment of former employees of the Government Employees Superannuation Board (GESB), I ask -
(1) What termination payment did former GESB chief executive officer Ms Dolin receive?
(2) How was this payment calculated?
(3) Who has been working as chief executive officer since Ms Dolin left GESB and at what annual remuneration?
(4) When has a long term appointment for a new chief executive officer been made?
(5) What is the annual remuneration for that employee?
(6) Have any other executive officers left GESB in this or the past financial year or are any about to leave?
(7) If yes to (6), please provide details as to the name of the person, their position and the respective amount of any pay-out made or to be made.
(8) If not contained in the answer to question (7), please provide information regarding the termination payments for -
(a) Ms Michelle Ahearn;
(b) Ms Collene Hansen; and
(c) Ms Sharon Hicks.
(9) Were these termination payments made from the general budget of GESB or were these expenses covered through general revenue?
(10) Gold State Super is a defined benefit plan where the indexed benefit is based on the years of service multiplied by the final average salary. Given that Ms Ahearn was a former state employee, how has the employment with GESB affected her superannuation benefit and the liability of Gold State Super when she left GESB?
(11) Section 11(2) of the amended
State Superannuation Act 2000
allows the Board to employ staff outside public service terms and conditions as determined by Board. I ask -
(a) how many staff are employed on other terms and conditions;
(b) what guidance is provided to the Board for the implementation of this provision;
(c) how is the Minister ensuring transparency of the process; and
(d) what is the mechanism to ensure that we don't get a repeat of the extraordinary past salaries at GESB?
