STREETLIGHTING CHARGES

The Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (15:00): Supplementary question: will the minister bring back the details of the change in methodology that has been offered to the Local Government Association?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Agriculture, Food and Fisheries, Minister for Forests, Minister for Regional Development, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for State/Local Government Relations) (15:00): I am not too sure about what alternate methodology. I have been advised that the department has offered to provide further explanation to councils on how council contributions to the commissioner have been determined, and I am happy to refer those questions to the appropriate minister in another place and bring back a response.
