Roads—construction costs
(Question No 1880)

Mr Seselja asked the Treasurer, upon notice, on 20 October 2011 (redirected to the Minister for Territory and Municipal Services):

What is the standard formula used by Treasury to estimate the cost of constructing a road.

Mr Corbell: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

There is no standard formula used to establish the cost of constructing a road. The cost estimate is dependent on the standard of road; the number of structures and services and the risks associated with the development and delivery of the project.

Health—funding
(Question No 1882)

Mr Hanson asked the Minister for Health, upon notice, on 20 October 2011:

(1) In relation to question on notice No 1711, how is the Health Funding Envelope funded.

(2) Is the Health Funding Envelope met from a new appropriation or is it funded by another provision in the budget.

(3) If the Health Funding Envelope is not funded by a new appropriation, what line item in the ACT Budget are these expenses transferred from to “Government Payments for Outputs”.

(4) Do the health measures met from the Health Funding Envelope impact on the budget bottom line when announced in the annual budget.

Ms Gallagher: I am advised that the answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) The Health Funding Envelope is funded from general growth in ACT Government revenue. The major sources of revenue for the ACT Government are Commonwealth Grants (including GST) and Own Source Revenues as detailed in the Budget Papers.
