CHIEF MINISTER FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION WITHOUT NOTICE TAKEN ON NOTICE

16 JUNE 1993

MS FOLLETT: On 16 June 1993 Mrs Carnell asked me a question relating to

the publication This Week in Canberra" and I undertook to

provide her with an answer. I replied to Mrs Carnell in writing on

6 July 1993 and to complete the record I present the answer.

MY ANSWER IS: I am informed that the Canberra office of the Sydney-based publisher of "This week in Canberra", Peter Isaacson Publications Pty Ltd, was advised by telephone several months ago of the ACT Tourism Commissions decision to remove the publication from prominent display at the Visitor Information Centre on Northbourne Avenue following a number of complaints from members of the public.

I am further informed that the publishers are again supplying the magazine to the Visitor Information Centre, where it is on display, and available on request but out of easy reach of children.

I understand that the Commissions decision is being reviewed by the Chair of Its Advisory Board.
