CHIEF MINISTER FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

Question. No. 562

Ministers and Staff - Office Rent

MR JENSEN - Asked the Chief Minister upon notice on 8 August 1991.

What was the amount of rent paid each month for that part of level 5 of the ACTAC Building used by the Executive (a) prior to 6 June 1991 and (b) after 6 June 1991.

MS FOLLETT - The answer to the Members question is as follows:

In 1990-91 an amount of $205,000 was included in the ACT Corporate Management Program to cover rent and utility . services (such as cleaning and electricity) for the Executive located on level 5 of the ACTAC Building.

This funding was paid to the ACT Accommodation Services Section within the ACT Public Works and Services Group, Department of Urban Services. They are the central area within the ACT Government Service responsible for accommodation services. They administer all contractual payments in respect of rent and utility services associated with the ACTAC Building.

During the year, two payments were made to ACT Accommodation Services, as follows:

Date of Payment Amount

s

23 October 1990 102,330

15 February 1991 102,330

Based on the above expenditure, average monthly accommodation costs in 1990-91 were $17,055.

Being so close to the end of the 1990-91 financial year, no Budget adjustments were made to the Program to reflect new accommodation arrangements following the change in Government on 6 June 1991. Appropriate financial adjustments will be reflected in 1991-92.
