Liquor Licensing Board

(Question No. 246)

Mr Quinlan asked the Attorney-General, upon notice:

A recent series of instruments, relating to the Liquor Act 1975, included appointments to the liquor licensing board.

(1) Is there a fee attached to these positions:

(a) If so, how much is the fee paid to each member;

(b) If not, how much time is contributed, free of charge, on average, per board member?

(2) What is the proportion of cost and Government Payment of Outputs associated with the operations of this board?

(3) To what output is the board attached.

Mr Humphries: The answer to Mr Quinlan's question is as follows:

(1) Fees for Board members are determined by the ACT Remuneration Tribunal. In the Tribunal's most recent determination (Determination Number 45) for Part-Time Holders of Public Office the fees to be paid to board members were set at the following levels:

Chair: $285 per diem

Member $235 per diem

All board members other than the Registrar of Liquor Licences are paid for their time.

For this financial year the board members have been paid a total of $5,564 YTD. The GPO for liquor licensing for this financial year is $621,000. The board's costs YTD are .89% of the GPO.
