Report 2
MR DOSZPOT (Molonglo) (4.30): I present the following report:
Justice and Community Safety—Standing Committee—Report 2—Annual and Financial Reports 2012-2013, dated March 2014, together with a copy of the extracts of the relevant minutes of proceedings.
I move:
That the report be noted.
Today I table the report of the Standing Committee on Justice and Community Safety on annual and financial reports 2012-2013. As you will appreciate, Madam Deputy Speaker, this is part of the important arrangements for scrutiny and accountability that we have in this place. Each year government agencies and statutory offices appear before the Assembly at annual reports and estimates hearings. This gives the Assembly scope and continuity in the scrutiny of public sector administration, which is important.
As in previous years, officers from the Justice and Safety Directorate, its sub-agencies and statutory offices associated with the directorate appeared before the committee together with officers from ACT Policing. The hearings were a high value exercise which brought a number of important matters to the attention of the committee, including matters of interest from previous annual reports and estimates hearings.
