QuestionView source ↗

(1) Given the recent increases in the price differential between petrol and liquefied petroleum gas, has the take-up rate of LPG-fuelled government vehicles increased? (2) How many vehicles are now in the trial? (3) When does the Government expect to achieve its stated commitment to having 300 vehicles participating in the trial? (4) As the trial has run for more than two years, will the minister table the results? (5) Will the minister table the advice from the government fleet manager, referred to in question on notice 1655 answered on 11 May 2000; if not, why not? (6) Given the fuel pricing benefits of LPG, is the minister willing to show some leadership and commit to obtaining an LPG-powered vehicle when her current government-supplied vehicle is due to be replaced? Hon PETER FOSS
