PUBLIC SECTOR EMPLOYEES — VOLUNTARY
SEVERANCE
243. Hon DARREN WEST to the
Leader of the House representing the Premier:
I refer to the Premier's answer to question without
notice 164, which directed my attention to specific tabled papers; that is, the
Public Sector Commission's annual reports.
(1) Can the Premier
confirm that the age breakdown of severances requested is specifically referred
to in the annual reports; and, if so, where in each annual report?
(2) If the
information sought in question without notice 164 is not available in those
annual reports, will the Premier provide the information now; and, if not, why
not?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the honourable member for some notice of this
question.
(1)–(2)
Age breakdowns for voluntary severances from 23 September 2008 to 11 June 2013
are as follows: 49 years or below, 380; 50 to 59 years, 514; and 60 years and
above, 632.
