J.A. DARLEY Legislative Council ADMINISTRATIVE AND INFORMATION SERVICES DEPARTMENT The Hon. J.A. DARLEY (14:45): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the Minister for Police, representing the Treasurer, questions in relation to the dissolution of the Department for Administrative and Information Services. Leave granted. The Hon. J.A. DARLEY Legislative Council The Hon. J.A. DARLEY: Members will be aware that, as part of its 2006 restructure in the Public Service (and referred to in last year's budget), the government dissolved the Department for Administrative and Information Services. Employees and functions of the former department were transferred to the Department of the Premier and Cabinet, the Department of Treasury and Finance, the Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure, and the Attorney-General's Department. My questions to the minister are: 1.	What savings did the government expect to realise by transferring the functions of DAIS to the other relevant departments I have mentioned above, exclusive of the shared services project? 2.	What savings have been realised since the transfer occurred? 3.	Who was responsible for ensuring that the savings were realised? The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY Legislative Council Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning The Hon. P. HOLLOWAY (Minister for Police, Minister for Mineral Resources Development, Minister for Urban Development and Planning) (14:46): I thank the honourable member for his question. I will refer it to the Treasurer in another place and bring back a response.
