Leigh Creek

In reply to the Hon. J.S.L. DAWKINS (9 June 2016).

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 am advised the Outback Communities Authority (OCA) will receive $8.824 million over five years. This investment will be used for the provision of services including parks and gardens maintenance, township facilities maintenance, rubbish collection and management, aerodrome operations, swimming pool operations and maintenance on public buildings and structures including the gymnasium and theatre.

This funding includes an allocation of $1.417 million over five years for town administration. A town administrator and an administrative support person will be engaged, with both of these full-time positions being based in Leigh Creek.

Along with these town administration resources the investment allocated for the provision of services includes a component for resources. At this time, work is still underway to determine the most efficient way of providing the services.
