(1) The names of all staff in Ministerial Offices (including a separate listing of placements) are provided in Tables 1 and 2. As at 2 May 2006 there are no trainees or other categories of staff in any Ministerial Office. (2) Classification levels and employment status are provided in Table 1 for all staff other than those on placement. Annual salary details are provided in Table 3. Placement staff are paid by their home agency and salary and employment status details are not held by Department of the Premier and Cabinet. (3) Collection of this information involves considerable resources and this task was recently completed for another parliamentary purpose. Consequently details of vehicles, mobile phones and credit cards provided to staff as at 15 March 2006 are provided in Table 1. Pagers are issued infrequently. Computers and faxes are provided as required for business purposes. Travel is undertaken as required for business purposes and is not regarded as a benefit or entitlement. Interstate and international travel is reported in quarterly Reports of Interstate and Overseas Travel Undertaken by Ministers, Members of Parliament and Officers on Official Business , which are tabled in Parliament. (4) The information sought is not easy to compile. I am not prepared to divert resources from other essential duties in order to provide a response to this part of the question.
