BUSINESS COMMISSIONER — BUILDING MANAGEMENT AND WORKS —CONSTRUCTION
SUBCONTRACTOR INVESTIGATION
712. Mr D.A. TEMPLEMAN to the
Minister for Finance:
I have a supplementary question. Who is telling the truth:
the Minister for Finance or the Small Business Commissioner?

AnswerView source ↗

All I can say is that BMW told me that it received a request,
during the process of the investigation, for complaints. Mr Eaton said that BMW
had a very inadequate complaints mechanism. One recommendation was to set up a
complaints mechanism to record complaints. To the extent that complaints were
made to BMW, they were provided to Mr Eaton.
