Transport Canberra—weekend bus services

Mr Steel (in reply to a supplementary question by Ms Lawder on Thursday, 19 September 2019):

For Saturday 21 September, 254 bus drivers were required, and for Sunday 22 September, 226 drivers were required.

For that weekend, there were 213 drivers rostered (accepted shifts) on Saturday 21 September and 188 (accepted shifts) on Sunday 22 September. Transport Canberra operations then worked with the available drivers to cover as many shifts as possible.

Transport Canberra—network 19 complaints

Mr Steel (in reply to a question and supplementary questions by Mrs Jones and Miss C Burch on Thursday, 19 September 2019):

Under Transport Canberra’s social media procedures, enquiries are responded to within one business day wherever possible. Social media feedback is passed to the Transport Canberra executive team where necessary. One staff member has primary responsibility for monitoring social media with the support of the broader TCCS communications team. Transport Canberra’s social media channels have clearly published rules to encourage appropriate online behaviour. Team members are encouraged to speak to their supervisor if they are upset with feedback received so they can be supported. Staff members are also able to access the TCCS Occupational Violence Management Plan which is available on the TCCS Intranet.

In regards to the number of complaints I have been advised by my Directorate that the information sought is not in an easily retrievable form, and to collect and assemble the information sought solely for the purpose of answering the question would require a considerable amount of resources.

During the same period, a total of 7,269 children and young people (3.3 percent on average) transferred from an independent school or a Catholic school to an ACT public school.
