SPEAKER OF THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY

LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION

QUESTION ON NOTICE NO 1223

Assembly Members - Christmas Cards

MR CORNWELL - asked the Speaker:

(1) Did individual Ministers have printed individual Christmas cards and if so, what was the cost per Minister.

(2) What was the cost per Member of Christmas cards supplied to Members.

(3) Will consideration be given in future years to providing Members with an allowance so they may choose their own cards.

MADAM SPEAKER - The answer to the Members question is as follows:

(1) The Legislative Assembly Secretariat is not responsible for printing Ministers Christmas cards.

(2) 4,000 Christmas cards were printed last year at a cost of $1395. As 13 Members received cards, an approximate cost per member is $107.

(3) Consideration was given last year to an allowance for each Member. However, as the estimated cost of producing individual cards would be approximately six times the current cost, the matter was not further pursued.
