PRISONS — INFRASTRUCTURE EXPANSION
615. Hon SAMANTHA ROWE to the Attorney General
representing the Minister for Corrective Services:
What amount was expended in total on
capital works on prisons, including adding additional accommodation and bunks
to existing prisons and the construction of new prisons, between October 2008
and the present date?

AnswerView source ↗

On behalf of the Attorney General
representing the Minister for Corrective Services, I provide the following
answer —
The total amount spent on capital
works for the period from July 2008 until April 2015 is $494 135 189. We cannot
provide figures for part of the year; therefore, the calculations for 2008–09
include the full financial year from July, rather than from October. The
figures for 2014–15 are as at 30 April 2015, as the figures for May
have not yet been completed.
