In relation to outcomes for the above specific matters:

i. Reference - 201009-000759 – I am advised that in relation to the balcony leak, Access Canberra have engaged with the builder and the builder has agreed to undertake rectification works. The other alleged defects are still being investigated.

ii. Reference - 210226-002214 – I am advised that the complainant was recently referred to ACT Civil and Admirative Tribunal, as the actions of the executive committee within a Unit Plan do not fall within the scope of Access Canberra and ACAT is the appropriate body to hear such matters.

iii. Reference - 201108-000432 – I am advised that this complaint has been assessed in relation to the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). I am informed that as PBS Building engaged Sellick Consultants to draft the report, the contractual relationship, and protections relating to services delivered under the contract (and the ACL), apply to PBS Building.

iv. The other matters raised are still under active investigation.

Energy—consumption
(Question No 154)

Ms Clay asked the Minister for Water, Energy and Emissions Reduction, upon notice, on 1 April 2021:

(1) What was the total household consumption, for the period (a) April to September 2019 (inclusive) and (b) April to September 2020 (inclusive) of (i) electricity and (ii) gas.

(2) What was the total commercial consumption, for the period (a) April to September 2019 (inclusive) and (b) April to September 2020 (inclusive) of (i) electricity and (ii) gas.

Mr Rattenbury: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The ACT Government does not collect data at the level of detail requested. Specifically, the ACT Government only collects total annual supply data and does not collect information that separates household energy consumption from commercial use.

We are unable to answer the specific question asked, however have provided total annual supply of electricity and natural gas in the ACT for 2018-19 and 2019-20 below. This data is reported to the ACT Government on an annual basis by energy utilities under the Utilities Act 2000.

Source: Energy Industry Levy determinations (54H – Utilities Act)

(2) The ACT Government does not collect or monitor all commercial consumption in the ACT. The ACT Government does receive data from the Clean Energy Regulator
