DEPARTMENT
OF HOUSING — ''PRIORITY START–BUILDING'' POLICY
709. Hon MARTIN PRITCHARD to
the Minister for Housing:
I refer to contract number HOU3907813 for head maintenance
contracts, issued by the Department of Housing.
(1) Did the
contracts of the four successful tenderers include their requirements under the
''Priority Start–Building'' policy; and, if not, why not?
(2) If yes to (1), what were their requirements?
(3) Has each
of these head contractors registered with the Department of Training and
Workforce Development under component A of the ''Priority Start–Building''
policy?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice
of this question.
(1) No. The
department was advised by the Department of Training and Workforce Development
that the priority start policy does not apply to the head maintenance contract.
(2) Not applicable.
(3) This matter is within the portfolio
of the Minister for Training and Workforce Development.
