FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT ACT
— SPECIAL PURPOSE ACCOUNTS
1055. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the minister representing the
Treasurer:
I
refer to the proliferation of special purpose accounts under the McGowan Labor
government and to the answer to question without notice 704 asked on 18
August 2022. What are the current balances of the 30 Treasurer's
special purpose accounts identified in the answer to question without notice
704?
Hon STEPHEN DAWSON
replied:
I
thank the Leader of the Opposition for some notice of the question. The answer
has been provided in tabular form. It lists the Treasurer's
special purpose account names and balances and is quite a long list. I therefore
seek leave to have the response incorporated into Hansard.
