Employee Renumeration

In reply to the Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (25 June 2024). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. A. MICHAELS (Enfield—Minister for Small and Family Business, Minister for Consumer and Business Affairs, Minister for Arts): I have been advised:

The main reasons for the difference were:

The Artistic Director was a contractor for part of the 2022-23 financial year, before becoming an employee for the remainder of that year, and was an employee for the full year in 2023-24; and

Inclusion of remuneration for one senior management team staff member in 2023-24 that did not meet the employee remuneration reporting threshold in 2022-23.
