ROAD TRAUMA TRUST ACCOUNT
911. Hon MARTIN ALDRIDGE to the minister representing the
Treasurer:
I
refer to Legislative Council question without notice 775 regarding
traffic-related infringements and offences revenue.
(1) In 2019–20 how much
revenue was received by the consolidated fund?
(2) How much is forecast to be
received by the consolidated fund in 2020–21?
(3) Has the
government considered increasing revenue flows from traffic-related offences to
the road trauma trust account in the name of improving road safety outcomes on
WA roads?
Hon
STEPHEN DAWSON replied:
I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) The amount of
revenue received by the consolidated account is currently being audited in
preparation of the release of the 2019–20 Annual Report on State
Finances next month.
(2) Based on 2019–20
midyear review projections, an amount of $33.8 million is expected to be paid
into the consolidated account in 2020–21.
(3) One hundred
per cent of the revenue from red-light and speed camera infringements is
already paid to the road trauma trust account.
