GOVERNMENT SPENDING

In reply to Mrs REDMOND (Heysen—Leader of the Opposition) (7 October 2010) (Estimates Committee A).

The Hon. J.W. WEATHERILL (Cheltenham—Premier, Minister for State Development): I have been advised of the following:

The variation between the $7.1 million budgeted net result for 2009-10 and the $7.6 million actual net result for 2009-10 mainly reflects higher than previously estimated depreciation expense associated with the Electronic Cabinet Online System, and higher employee costs as a result of the Cabinet Submission Release Rule from a 20 year embargo on documents to a 10 year embargo on documents.
