The State Government is spending a record $300million on the maintenance of school buildings over four years. For the information of the Member, this is in contrast to $206 million spent on maintenance during the final four years of the previous Coalition Government.
Information relating to school maintenance is obtained from the Building Condition Assessment (BCA) process. The BCA process is conducted at periodic intervals and identifies maintenance needs that result from gradual wear and tear and deterioration of building components.
Information is currently being collated by the Department of Housing and Works.
