Energy Concession Scheme

Dr McFETRIDGE (Morphett) (14:58): My question is again to the Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion. Can the minister tell the house how much money has been paid to energy providers as part of the government's concession scheme, and how much was incorrectly paid?

The Hon. Z.L. BETTISON (Ramsay—Minister for Communities and Social Inclusion, Minister for Social Housing, Minister for Multicultural Affairs, Minister for Ageing, Minister for Youth, Minister for Volunteers) (14:58): I thank the member for the question. I don't have that figure in front of me. I do know that we work very effectively and communicate quite often with energy companies to make sure that the information that we have for the concessions are available, and that they are paying the concessions. I will be happy to find out that information and deliver an answer back to the house.

The SPEAKER: Third supplementary, member for Morphett.
