Electricity—outages

ActewAGL Distribution has advised my Directorate of six unplanned electricity supply outages in the week preceding Tuesday 14 February 2017. The causes of these outages reflect routine and regular day-to-day electricity network operation activities, such as equipment faults and fallen vegetation.

Separate to the above unplanned outages, ACT and NSW electricity networks were being closely monitored between Thursday, 10 February 2017 and Sunday, 12 February 2017 on advice of the Australian Energy Market Operator that there was a lack of forecast reserve generation capacity in the NSW market on those days. Due to the actions of households and businesses across ACT and NSW to reduce their non-essential energy use over those days the power system was kept within stable operating ranges. No ACT electricity customers lost electricity supply as a result of either these voluntary measures or broader power system issues on those days.

ACT Health—mental health data

Mr Rattenbury (in reply to supplementary questions by Mrs Dunne and Mrs Jones on Wednesday, 15 February 2017):

(1) Investigations to date have not found any errors in the mental health data in the 2014-15 Annual Report. The mental health datasets will be examined further as part of the system-wide review of ACT Health data and reporting processes.
