APY Lands, Governance

In reply to Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (31 July 2017). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Employment, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation, Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Science and Information Economy): I have been advised:

A supplementary election was required for female members of the APY Executive Board in the electorates of 'Pukatja, Yunyarinyi, Anilalya and Turkey Bore', 'Mimili' and 'Iwantja, Amuruna, Railway Bore, Witjintitja and Wallatinna'.

The supplementary election scheduled for 2 August 2017 was not required, following the declaration of nominations for that election. In 'Mimili' and 'Iwantja, Amuruna, Railway Bore, Witjintitja and Wallatinna', the sole candidates, Ms Theresa Campbell and Ms Ebony Benson respectively, were elected unopposed. No nominations were received in 'Pukatja, Yunyarinyi, Anilalya and Turkey Bore'.
