ACT public service—expense claims
(Question Nos 2081, 2083, 2085 and 2088)

Mr Coe asked the Minister for Education and Training, the Minister for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Affairs, the Minister for Industrial Relations and the Minister for Corrections, upon notice, on 23 February 2012 (redirected to the Treasurer):

(1) How many instances have there been of contested, inappropriate or queried expense claims in the Minister’s directorate.

(2) How many times have claims for expenses been denied.

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

(1) Expense claims in each directorate are subject to scrutiny and review by authorised financial delegates before any claim is approved for payment. Directorates’ financial management systems only record approved expense claims data, upon receipt of properly authorised payment paperwork. Therefore records of expenditure cannot be interrogated to identify claims not approved for payment.
