I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) No tickets to events were accepted from Healthway by the
Premier or his ministerial office staff.
(2) If
ministerial office staff wish to accept an invitation, the Department of the
Premier and Cabinet requires ministerial office staff to seek permission to
attend an event, unless they are accompanying a minister as part of the
minister's official duties or the invitation is to an event hosted by
the minister's agency. Records are not kept by the department when
invitations are received or declined or the officer does not advise the
department of an invitation.
(3) Not applicable.
