FINES AND PENALTIES

In reply to Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (20 June 2012) (Estimates Committee A).

The Hon. J.R. RAU (Enfield—Deputy Premier, Attorney-General, Minister for Planning, Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for Business Services and Consumers): I have received this advice:

The decrease in 2011-12 was mainly due to a reduction in revenue relating to lottery licensing.

The increase in 2012-13 mainly relates to revenue originally included in the budget to reflect changes to the fines collection process.
