(a-c) Information relating to agency travel can be found in quarterly reports titled "Interstate and Overseas Travel Undertaken by Ministers, Members of Parliament and Officers on Official Business", tabled in Parliament every quarter as part of this Government's ongoing commitment to accountability and transparency.
The most recent report, for the three months ended 30 September 2012, was tabled in the Legislative Assembly on 27 June 2013 (see tabled paper no 422) and Legislative Council on 27 June 2013 (see tabled paper no 382).
These travel reports are also publically available on the Department of the Premier and Cabinet website.
