I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question.
The question I have is in the name
of Hon Dr Steve Thomas rather than in the member's name. However, I will
provide an answer to the house.
(1) From inception, a total of 61 unsolicited
market-led proposals have been received. That is made up of 27 in 2019,
22 in 2020, and 12 in 2021 for the year to date.
(2) In accordance
with the MLP policy, a summary of each MLP invited to stage 2 and the outcome
of the evaluation process at the end of stages 2 and 3 is publicly disclosed on
the MLP website.
In
addition to unsolicited market-led proposals lodged by proponents, the
government issued seven problem and
opportunity statements in August 2020 seeking submissions on defined problems.
Eighty-three stage 1 submissions were received in response to these
problem and opportunity statements.
(3)–(4) See answer to (2).
(5) Two MLPs have recently been completed. Market-led
proposals are assessed against a number of benefits , in addition to
financial returns, as set out in the published policy and guidelines.
Noting
that the answer refers to a website, which is outside of our standing orders
and is not commonly done, I will seek to get the member a list at a future
stage.
