ELECTRICITY RETAILERS — DISCONNECTIONS
341. Hon SIMON O'BRIEN to the minister representing
the Minister for Energy:
Provide the following for each
energy retailer in Western Australia.
(a) For each month from July 2018 to March 2019, how
many disconnection warnings were issued for —
(i) residential customers; and
(ii) non-residential customers?
(b) For each month from July 2018 to
March 2019, how many disconnections occurred for —
(i) residential customers; and
(ii) non-residential customers?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question. The question had been asked of the Leader of the House,
but I represent the Minister for Energy, so I have an answer to that question.
The answer is in tabular form. It
has months, disconnection warnings and disconnections, so I seek leave to have
it incorporated into Hansard.
Leave granted.
The following material
was incorporated —
