BOSTON CONSULTING GROUP

In reply to the Hon. T.A. FRANKS (24 March 2011) (First Session).

The Hon. R.P. WORTLEY (Minister for Industrial Relations, Minister for State/Local Government Relations): The Premier has advised:

1. The consultancy work undertaken by the Boston Consultancy Group in 2009 was not related to the work of the Sustainable Budget Commission.

2. In 2009 the Boston Consulting Group organised a series of policy catalyst workshops for the Department of the Premier and Cabinet to develop key new ideas for taking our state forward. From this, a series of policy ideas and enablers were generated.

3. The contract was for leading of policy catalyst workshops, not the creation of a report.
