STATE BUDGET - GOVERNMENT FEES AND CHARGES
I refer the Treasurer to question without notice 358 and tabled paper 2758. Sometimes the numbers of the questions that we get back are different from those that appear in Hansard , so sometimes there is confusion. (1) Will the Treasurer table the full document from which the tabled paper was sourced? (2) Will the Treasurer table a copy of the policy guidelines dealing with commercial sector agencies as opposed to non-commercial agencies? (3) Will the Treasurer table advice issued to non-commercial agencies by the Treasury Agency Resource Division concerning the CPI figure to be used for increasing fees and charges for 2007-08? (4) Will the Treasurer table advice given to commercial agencies concerning the CPI figure to be used for adjusting fees and charges for the 2007-08 year? (5) If the Treasurer will not table any of the requested documents, will the Treasurer explain why not? Hon KATE DOUST
