Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 343 asked in the Legislative Council on 7 April 2022 by Hon Neil Thomson

Parliament: 41 Session: 1

GOVERNMENT REGIONAL OFFICERS' HOUSING — KIMBERLEY

343. Hon NEIL THOMSON to the Leader of the House representing the Minister for Housing:

I refer to the availability of government worker accommodation in the Kimberley.

What was the cost of private rental subsidies for eligible public servants for the financial years 2019–20 and 2020–21 and the 2021–22 financial year to date for the following agencies —

(a) the WA Police Force;

(b) corrections;

(c) the Department of Education;

(d) the Department of Health; and

(e) the Department of Communities.

Hon SUE ELLERY replied:

I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question.

(a)–(d) Under the Government Regional Officers' Housing program, the Department of Communities charges rent to government agencies for the lease of an allocated GROH property. Each individual client agency holds the information requested, and the honourable member should redirect his question to the relevant minister for these agencies.

(e) For the Department of Communities, the information requested is not possible in the time required, and I therefore ask the honourable member to place this question on notice.
