Economic Stimulus Package

78 The Hon. S.C. MULLIGHAN (Lee) (3 June 2020). As at 3 June 2020, has all of the $350 million announced as an economic stimulus on 11 March 2020 been allocated to specific initiatives?

(a) Please provide a list of the initiatives, along with an estimated cost for each initiative, that have been approved as at 3 June 2020?

(b) Which initiatives that have so far been approved were already budgeted for expenditure across the state budget's forward estimates period?

(c) As at 3 June 2020, how much of the $350 million has been expended by the government, on which initiatives and what amount per initiative?

The Hon. S.S. MARSHALL (Dunstan—Premier): I have been advised:

(a) The attached table lists for each initiative, the amount estimated to be spent as at 30 June 2020, which is still subject to year-end audit processes, and an estimated profile of the remaining cost.

(b) Around $40 million relates to projects brought forward from future years ($38 million from the period up to 2023-24 and $2 million that would otherwise have been spent in 2024-25). This includes the $15 million for country hospital upgrades and $10 million in social housing maintenance. In addition, $15 million was brought forward from the Planning and Development Fund as part of the government's commitment to work with local councils to deliver $50 million of shovel ready projects to support local jobs.

(c) This is included in the response to part (a).
