I refer to the decision by Water Corporation to insource the services currently provided under the Aroona Alliance, and ask: (a) Similar to the Perth Region Alliance, are there industrial enterprise agreement

Corporation staff that will impact the ongoing operational costs of the
Water Corporation following insourcing of services: (i) If so, what are these differences and what will be the financial impact on Water Corporation; (b) Have these costs been accounted in the expected $2m savings outlined in the Minister's press release dated 26 November; (c) Can the Minister table the Aroona Alliance contract; and (d) How many contracts is the Aroona Alliance party to, in the provision of services under the alliance?
