819. Hon STEVE MARTIN to the minister representing the
Minister for Environment:
I refer to the ongoing
costs of maintaining our forests.
(1)
For each of the last 10 financial years, what was the total expenditure by the
Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions on maintaining roads —
(a) in state forests
closed to harvesting activities; and
(b) in state forests
available to harvesting activities?
(2) For each answer
to (1)(a) and (b), how was this funded?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank the
honourable member for some notice of the question. The following answer has
been provided by the Minister for Environment.
The production of
this information will divert staff resources from their usual work, and it is
not possible to provide the information requested in the time frame. I request
that the member place this question on notice.
