MR BARR: I have recently been notified by the Chairman of the ACTEW Corporation that an error has been discovered from its 2010-11 annual report. I am advised that the corporation discovered that it had understated the executive remuneration of the managing director in the order of $234,417. The correct salary should have read $855,588. This correct salary is consistent with the figure reported and tabled in the corporation’s 2011-12 annual report.

Mr Assistant Speaker, I must say that I am surprised and disappointed to learn that the 2010-11 annual report had such a discrepancy from what was previously tabled in this place. The shareholders of the ACTEW Corporation, the Chief Minister and I, have asked the chairman to clarify the details of the circumstances surrounding this error and why it was not discovered earlier. As shareholders, we will continue to seek further answers regarding this error. However, as a courtesy to members I have tabled this document today, the first sitting day after I received this notification from the chairman. I will report back to the Assembly further information when I can.
