Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 1400 asked in the Legislative Council on 22 November 2019 by Hon Dr Steve Thomas

Parliament: 40 Session: 1

GST DISTRIBUTION — IRON ORE PRICE

1400. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the minister representing the Treasurer:

I refer to the answer to my question without notice 1362 asked on 20 November this year about the 2019 mini boom of iron ore royalties.

(1) Were the statements of the Under Treasurer in agency annual report hearings on 13 November, as indicated in question without notice 1362, incorrect or inaccurate?

(2) If yes to (1), in what way were they incorrect or inaccurate?

(3) If yes to (1), did the Under Treasurer mislead the Standing Committee on Estimates and Financial Operations?

(4) If no to (1), why was the answer to question without notice 1362 such a childish and facetious one?

The PRESIDENT: We really are at the end of the week, aren't we!

Hon STEPHEN DAWSON replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question. The following answer has been provided to me by the Treasurer.

(1) The representation of the Under Treasurer's statements in question without notice 1362 was incorrect and inaccurate.

(2)–(4) Not applicable.
