GRIFFIN COAL —
COLLIE
1062. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the minister representing the
Minister for State Development, Jobs and Trade:
I refer to the Australian
Securities and Investments Commission's laying of criminal charges
against Griffin Coal for offences over alleged failure to lodge its audited
financial accounts and to the answer to question without notice 1003 asked on
17 November.
(1) Who conducted the inquiry
referenced in part (5) of the answer?
(2) Please provide a copy of that
review.
(3) What volume of coal has Griffin
supplied in the first quarter of the 2021–22 financial year?
Hon ALANNAH MacTIERNAN
replied:
I thank the member. The minister
has provided the following information.
(1)–(2) Energy
Policy WA routinely assesses the energy security of the south west
interconnected system, taking into account contingencies for the failure of
private companies. In addition, the Australian Energy Market Operator, as the
independent system operator of the SWIS, undertakes its own regular analysis.
(3) The Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and
Innovation advises that Griffin has advised that the volume supplied to
its customers in the first quarter of the 2021–22 financial year was
621 027 tonnes.
