Government Boards

The Hon. J.E. HANSON (14:55): As a supplementary, I will slightly vary the original question: how is the chair's conduct consistent with section 13.3 of the commissioner's determination, which says:

…reimbursement of expenses which are clearly the board member's responsibility, such as car parking and child care expenses, are not to be provided.

The Hon. J.M.A. LENSINK (Minister for Human Services) (14:55): In relation to childcare expenses, I am not aware that the chair of the board has claimed any; in fact, I would be very surprised if he has. In relation to car parking expenses, my understanding is that he was merely providing some receipts to verify those expenses.
