AnswerView source ↗
I thank the Leader of the Opposition for the question, particularly for giving me some notice because it has given me some opportunity to gather the information that he requires from this particular question. (1) The answer to the first question is: 24 June. Okay? Twenty-four June—write that down. A copy of the response was hand-delivered to my chief of staff. That was on 25 June. (2) I am more than happy to table today the briefing notes that exist in my office. The only ones I can find are not so much briefing notes as two spreadsheets which, in fact, show FESA’s responses to the recommendations in the Keelty report. Mr E.S. Ripper : It would be great if you tabled them now. Mr R.F. JOHNSON : I am going to table them today. I am more than happy to do that, Leader of the Opposition. The third part of the question was — Mr E.S. Ripper : Exactly what action did you take following the receipt of this document? Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Following receipt of this document, I obviously tried to ensure that FESA would be well prepared for the upcoming bushfire season. If the Leader of the Opposition is trying to insinuate—did I take any action? Mr M. McGowan : It’s a question. The SPEAKER : Thank you, members! Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Did I take any action after receiving it? This was after the time line had finished for responses to go to the Public Sector Commissioner. If the Leader of the Opposition wants an answer — Mr E.S. Ripper : You get a report that shows there were serious criticisms of the Keelty process, what did you do? Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Mr Speaker — Mr D.A. Templeman : Nothing. You didn’t do anything. The SPEAKER : Member for Mandurah! Mr R.F. JOHNSON : I would keep very quiet if I were the member for Mandurah; very, very quiet! This came to my office after the response had gone to the Public Sector Commissioner. Does the Leader of the Opposition understand that? Ms M.M. Quirk : Eight weeks before cabinet. Mr R.F. JOHNSON : This came after the response from FESA to the Public Sector Commissioner. What did I do? I studied it very carefully and I worked my way through it. I table the document. [See papers 3826 and 3827.]

(1) When was the FESA comment on “A Shared Responsibility: The Report of the Perth Hills Bushfire February 2011 Review” document received by the minister’s office? (2) Will the minister table all briefing notes relating to this report that exist in his office? (3) Exactly what action did the minister take following the receipt of this report? Mr R.F. JOHNSON replied: I thank the Leader of the Opposition for the question, particularly for giving me some notice because it has given me some opportunity to gather the information that he requires from this particular question. (1) The answer to the first question is: 24 June. Okay? Twenty-four June—write that down. A copy of the response was hand-delivered to my chief of staff. That was on 25 June. (2) I am more than happy to table today the briefing notes that exist in my office. The only ones I can find are not so much briefing notes as two spreadsheets which, in fact, show FESA’s responses to the recommendations in the Keelty report. Mr E.S. Ripper : It would be great if you tabled them now. Mr R.F. JOHNSON : I am going to table them today. I am more than happy to do that, Leader of the Opposition. The third part of the question was — Mr E.S. Ripper : Exactly what action did you take following the receipt of this document? Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Following receipt of this document, I obviously tried to ensure that FESA would be well prepared for the upcoming bushfire season. If the Leader of the Opposition is trying to insinuate—did I take any action? Mr M. McGowan : It’s a question. The SPEAKER : Thank you, members! Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Did I take any action after receiving it? This was after the time line had finished for responses to go to the Public Sector Commissioner. If the Leader of the Opposition wants an answer — Mr E.S. Ripper : You get a report that shows there were serious criticisms of the Keelty process, what did you do? Mr R.F. JOHNSON : Mr Speaker — Mr D.A. Templeman : Nothing. You didn’t do anything. The SPEAKER : Member for Mandurah! Mr R.F. JOHNSON : I would keep very quiet if I were the member for Mandurah; very, very quiet! This came to my office after the response had gone to the Public Sector Commissioner. Does the Leader of the Opposition understand that? Ms M.M. Quirk : Eight weeks before cabinet. Mr R.F. JOHNSON : This came after the response from FESA to the Public Sector Commissioner. What did I do? I studied it very carefully and I worked my way through it. I table the document. [See papers 3826 and 3827.]
