Government—payment of invoices
(Question Nos 584, 587, 589, 592 and 599)

Mr Seselja asked various ministers, upon notice, on 11 February 2010 (redirected to the Chief Minister):

How many invoices were received by each department or agency in the Minister’s portfolio in (a) July, (b) August, (c) September, (d) October, (e) November and (f) December 2009, what was the average value of these invoices and how many of these invoices were fully paid by their due date.

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

• Information associated with the number of invoices received by the Department each month is not available. The response is therefore based on the invoices paid by the Department.

• In line with how Shared Services provided the required information to the Department, the below response reflects the total number of invoices paid during the period July to December 2009, rather each month individually.

• The response for CMD shown below includes all CMD cost centres, and therefore includes invoices paid in relation to the following portfolios:

• Industrial Relations;

• Tourism data is included from the date of the AAO transfer;

• Business and Economic Development; and

• Arts.
