(1) During Question Time on 28 November 2018 did the Chief Minister state “The projections that Ms Le Couteur refers to were issued on 13 March 2017 and I believe are now already out of date”; if so, are the 13 March 2017 population projections still being used for service planning and other purposes within the ACT Government, or are other population projections being used.
(2) What is the staffing and resourcing status of the Chief Minister, Treasury and Economic Development Directorate‘s demography function.

(2) Treasury has responsibility for demographic projections and meets the cost from within its overall resourcing for economic management.
