Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 1999 Week 6 Hansard (22 June) . . Page.. 1758 ..
In line with the Financial Management Act 1997, Members of the Legislative Assembly are provided with quarterly reports detailing performance against major indicators. A copy of the March Report provided to Members is attached for your convenience.
A report detailing performance by service providers against measures in Purchase Agreements is also tabled quarterly. Again for the convenience of Members, a copy of the December 1998 report is also attached. The March 1999 Report is currently being prepared.
Monthly information bulletins for The Canberra and Calvary Hospitals are also tabled in this Assembly.
(2) As indicated earlier, Purchase Agreements do not generally include monthly or
quarterly targets and it is not possible therefore to respond to Mr Stanhope's
question.
The Department does however apply some tests of performance as part of its monitoring role, and seeks additional information where possible anomalies are identified.
A number of organisations are not able to meet the Department's deadlines for submission of quarterly reports and the Department is working with these organisations to see what can be done to overcome the reporting problems.
