Members, Accommodation Allowances

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (15:09): My question is to you, sir, regarding ICAC investigations. I seek leave to make a brief explanation before asking the question.

Leave granted.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: We are aware that in addition to the request from ICAC to several MPs who have been the subject of public commentary and statement and their staff in relation to the country members' accommodation allowance, there have been requests made to both chambers of parliament in relation to the provision of certain documents and information.

My questions to you, sir, are: does that request for information to the chambers of parliament from ICAC still stand and have there been any variations to it? Secondly, will you release a copy of the request from ICAC to this chamber or officers of this chamber?

The PRESIDENT (15:10): I thank the Leader of the Opposition for the question. Members would recall that on my first day in this chair and within only a matter of minutes of having the privilege of taking this office, I did make a short statement in regard to these matters. I have had a brief opportunity to undertake some consideration of those and it is my intention to make a further statement in the next sitting week.
