(a – b) The level of information sought by the Member – which extends over a seven and half year period – is not readily available and collecting it would divert staff away from their normal duties, and is not considered to be a reasonable or appropriate use of government resources. Ministerial Office Staffing Reports are publicly available and tabled regularly in the parliament.
