(1) I refer to your media statement of 28 February 2001 entitled ‘Labor Slashes 30 Cars from Ministerial Vehicle Fleet’ and ask is it correct that each Ministerial Office is limited to a three car per office policy?
(2) If so, will the Premier advise why the Premier’s Office has six vehicles, the Deputy Premier’s Office has five vehicles and the Minister for Environment and Heritage Office has five vehicles?

Ministerial Offices generally have an entitlement of three vehicles per Office. The Premier and Deputy Premier's Office have an entitlement of six and five vehicles respectively to reflect the additional obligations due to their leadership role. There are three vehicles allocated to the Office of the Minister for the Environment and Heritage. In addition two officers on specific public sector assignments, managed from the Minister's Office, are provided with vehicles.
