Question Time

Members, Accommodation Allowances

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:17): I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking a question of you, sir, regarding allowances.

Leave granted.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: In response to revelations that Liberal Party MPs and ministers are repaying tens of thousands of dollars of previous claims for the country members' accommodation allowance, the Premier said:

…I've made it clear to my team they need to make it clear what those administrative errors were and rectify them as quickly as possible…

My question to you, sir, is: have you reviewed all your claim forms, and have you found any administrative errors or other inaccuracies in your claim forms?

The PRESIDENT (14:18): Honourable Leader of the Opposition, I refer you to my statement of Tuesday 30 June. I've got nothing further to add.
