Government Contractors

614 Mr PICTON (Kaurna) (24 August 2021). What is the variance between the cost of payments made and the original budget for each of MSS, Spotless and ISS, and what subcontracted companies and services have been approved under contractual arrangements with each of MSS, Spotless and ISS?

The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education): The Minister for Health and Wellbeing has been advised:

The following table provides a summary of services, spend and subcontractors for MSS, ISS Healthcare Services and Spotless (now Downer).

The spend is across all local health networks (LHNs) and a range of contracts. For some services e.g. food and cleaning consumables, there is a variable component to the spend depending on demand and profile of patients. The budgets are set and managed by individual LHNs.

The list of subcontractors is indicative.
