The Department of Mines and Petroleum has estimated the cost of integrating the Resource Safety Division (which includes the mines safety functions) to be approximately $555,000.
Over $400,000 of this amount comprises costs incurred on essential upgrades and additions to the Department's information and communications technology, including the installation of separate and "confidential" cabling into the Mineral House Head Office in East Perth from the Department's Safety Inspectorate offices in Cannington, Kalgoorlie, Collie and Karratha and the facilities on its explosives reserves in Kalgoorlie and Baldivis. In addition to this, many new internal links and data cables have been installed, all of which have been linked to the Department's external electronic disaster recovery site.
The integration of the Resources Safety Division into the Department and the resulting improvement in the integration of all of its regulatory services including those involving mine and petroleum safety and the important obligations imposed on mining tenement holders, will ensure that these services are dispensed with greater focus and efficiency.
