APPENDIX 2: (Incorporated in Hansard on 12 May 1993 at page 1357)

CHIEF MINISTER FOR THE

AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION WITHOUT NOTICE TAKEN ON NOTICE

25 FEBRUARY 1993

MS FOLLETT: On 25 February 1993 Mr Kaine asked me a question

regarding a contract for the manufacture of an

ACT flag. I undertook to provide him with an answer.

"NO CONTRACT HAS BEEN AWARDED TO ANY FIRM TO MANUFACTURE THE NEW FLAG FOR THE ACT.

AS ASSEMBLY MEMBERS ARE AWARE, WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A COMMUNITY CONSULTATION PHASE ON FOUR POSSIBLE DESIGNS FOR A FLAG FOR THE ACT. THE PEOPLE OF THE TERRITORY HAVE BEEN ASKED TO INDICATE THEIR PREFERENCES BY 5 MARCH 1993. IF THERE IS A CONSENSUS ON A PARTICULAR DESIGN, MEMBERS WILL BE ASKED TO ENDORSE ITS SELECTION AS THE NEW ACT FLAG.

I UNDERSTAND THAT FOR BUDGETARY PURPOSES MY DEPARTMENT HAS APPROACHED THREE MAJOR AUSTRALIAN MANUFACTURERS TO INDICATE THEIR ESTIMATES FOR PRODUCTION OF ALL FOUR SHORTLISTED DESIGNS. A FORMAL QUOTATION PROCESS INVOLVING LOCAL MANUFACTURERS WILL BE UNDERTAKEN WHEN A DESIGN IS

SELECTED."
