Environment and Water Department

In reply to Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (30 July 2019). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS (Black—Minister for Environment and Water): I have been advised of the following

Between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2019, there were four executive roles abolished within the Department for Environment and Water. These were:

Group Executive Director, Climate Change (SAES2)

Group Executive Director, People and Performance (SAES1)

Director, Organisational Reform (SAES1)

Director, Major Projects (SAES1)

The total employment cost for these four roles, based the last SAES appointed occupant, was $730,502 (excluding on-costs).

Individual executive total remuneration package values as detailed in schedule 2 of an executive employee's contract will not be disclosed as it is deemed to be unreasonable disclosure of personal affairs.
