(1-3) I refer the Member to Parliamentary Question LC 454, which detailed the Government's current policy where eligible vehicles are replaced at the end of their lease terms by another six- cylinder vehicle, then 25% of such vehicles should be LPG- powered. Vehicles allocated to the Minister's Office are part of the Department of the Premier and Cabinet's vehicle fleet, which has exceeded the 25% target with 28% of eligible vehicles LPG powered. Across Government, the purchase of LPG-powered vehicles has, at 27%, slightly exceeded the target. (4) Not applicable (5) No (6) Personal Choice
