          <by role="member" id="1812">The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Treasurer, Minister for State Development, Minister for the Public Sector, Minister for the Arts):</by>  I have been advised the following:</text>
        <text id="20130618a7e9907530924b44b0000346">Staff within the Premier's Office, like all employees, receive their superannuation in accordance with the superannuation scheme of which they are a member.</text>
        <text id="20130618a7e9907530924b44b0000347">Members can elect to make personal contributions and if they do so, where authorised by the terms of the scheme of which they are a member, they can qualify for a higher rate than the standard 9 per cent employer contribution.</text>
        <text id="20130618a7e9907530924b44b0000348">As a result four members of the Premier's staff were entitled to an employer contribution of between 10 and 14.75 per cent.</text>
