MR STANHOPE (Ginninderra—Chief Minister, Minister for Transport, Minister for Territory and Municipal Services, Minister for Business and Economic Development, Minister for Indigenous Affairs and Minister for the Arts and Heritage): For the information of members, I present the following paper:

Annual Reports (Government Agencies) Act, pursuant to subsection 9(5)—Chief Minister’s 2007-2010 Annual Report Directions.

I seek leave to make a statement in relation to the paper.

Leave granted.

MR STANHOPE: Mr Speaker, this instrument is issued in accordance with the Annual Reports (Government Agencies) Act 2004 and continues to provide the three-year framework for the preparation of annual reports. Under the act this instrument must be tabled, although it is not disallowable. The instrument is notifiable under the Legislation Act 2001.

The annual report directions were provided to the Standing Committee on Public Accounts for consultation. The chair advised on 9 June 2009 that the committee had considered the draft directions. I have written to the committee thanking them for their comments.
