Supplementary answers to questions without notice

Legislative Assembly—members’ staff

MR GENTLEMAN: In regard to Mrs Dunne’s question on Mr Bradley Burch, I have been advised by HR that there is no record of Mr Burch having been employed by me or anybody else in the ACT executive. He has not been a staffer. Further, Mrs Dunne should not misrepresent my comments. Hansard of 27 November 2014 clearly shows that my reference to Mr Burch was for his role as a public servant.

Housing ACT—COVID-19 pandemic response

Schools—lead paint

MS BERRY: I can confirm for Mr Parton’s question on multi-unit properties and cleaning in response to COVID that high contact areas like handrails and entrances are cleaned more regularly because of COVID, and in shared laundry spaces there is hand sanitiser provided.

In response to Mr Hanson’s question about hazardous materials, hazardous materials registers are available for school communities to access at the front office of every single school.

Roads—upgrades

MR STEEL: In question time Mr Parton asked me about signs that the ACT government placed on the Monaro Highway and asked why the federal government’s logo was not on the sign. It is in fact on the sign. It is the same size as the ACT government’s logo on the sign. I table an example of one of the signs for the Assembly:
