MR MOORE: MY QUESTION IS TO ROSEMARY FOLLETT, CHIEF MINISTER IN HER CAPACITY AS BEING IN CHARGE OF THE PUBLIC SERVICE.

• WHAT KIND OF PACKAGES ARE OFFERED TO SENIOR OFFICERS A, B AND C IN THE A.C.T. GOVERNMENT SERVICE; AND

• ARE INCENTIVES BEING CONSIDERED TO USE PUBLIC TRANSPORT TO AND FROM WORK.

MY ANSWER IS:

SENIOR OFFICERS IN THE A.C.T. GOVERNMENT SECTOR ARE CLASSIFIED AS TRANSITIONAL STAFF UNDER THE

AUSTRALIAN CAPITAL TERRITORY (SELF-GOVERNMENT) ACT 1988 AND ARE EMPLOYED UNDER THE PUBLIC SERVICE ACT 1922 (CAW). THE PACKAGES OFFERED TO SENIOR OFFICERS

GRADES A, B, AND C ARE THE SAME AS THOSE DIFFERED TO ALL AUSTRALIAN PUBLIC SERVANTS.

THE STANDARD PROVISIONS FOR REMUNERATION INCLUDE, IN ADDITION TO SALARY, SUPERANNUATION AND THE USUAL CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT RECREATION LEAVE, MATERNITY LEAVE, AND SO ON). IN 1991 AN ADDITIONAL PACKAGE OF THREE COMPONENTS WAS AGREED BETWEEN THE COMMONWEALTH AND THE PUBLIC SECTOR UNION.

THESE WERE:
