Opposition paper chase
may have $2m price tag for taxpayers
by:Peter Mickelburough
From:Herald Sun
October 24, 2011 12:00AM
THE State's biggest paper chase has been launched by the State
Opposition and the Government claims it could cost taxpayers more than
$2 million.

Labor unleashed a barrage of 14,130 questions to government
ministers in 2828 five-part Questions on Notice in the Legislative
Council on one day in the last sitting week.

The torrent was a record for a single day
and dwarfs the total Questions on Notice
in the Upper House for all of 2008, 2009 and 2010 combined.

Just printing them to provide a copy to every MP was a major exercise.
Almost all were identical "cookie cutter" questions asking if ministers or
their staff had met representatives of various lobbying firms.
According to Department of Premier and Cabinet estimates,
answering Questions on Notice take public servants two to 15 hours.

This would put the time to answer Labor's requests at between 5600 and
42,400 hours, or between 700 and 5200 working days at a cost between
$280,000 and $2.1 million in wages.

Results: Paper Chase
Thanks for voting!

Is submitting the long list of questions a waste of taxpayers' cash?

Yes 83.87% (26 votes)
No 16.13% (5 votes)

Total votes: 31

Any answers will also have to be printed and distributed.

"Daniel Andrews and Labor are prepared to waste taxpayers' money even in
opposition - just like it did for 11 years when in government - divert
enormous public service resources and abuse parliamentary process for
nothing more than a political stunt," a government spokeswoman said.

But Opposition scrutiny of government spokesman Martin Pakula said the
flood of questions was a direct response to the Government's refusal to
answer questions inside or outside Parliament, including previous
questions about lobbyists.

"This Government is using every device it can to avoid scrutiny and is rapidly
becoming a highly secretive one that won't answer questions or explain itself," he said.

Mr Pakula said the exercise would not cost $2 million because the Government
would give generic "whole of government" responses as it had to similar questions
in the Lower House.

But the man often dubbed "media Mike" is not shy about listing his government's achievements since coming to office in 2002.

By any measure it's a reasonably impressive list.

In recent weeks the premier has signed-off on the banning of mining in the
environmentally-sensitive Arkaroola Sanctuary in the Flinders Ranges
and also the deal to have BHP Billiton spend $30 billion expanding the
Olympic Dam copper and uranium mine.

Over the past decade it has also increased spending on health and education,
opening new schools and employing more doctors and nurses.

It has also built a desalination plant, started construction on a new central hospital and
approved the major redevelopment of Adelaide Oval.

Mike Rann: The man who 'saved' Arkaroola Adelaide Now, 4 days ago

In defence, SA secured the contracts to build the Navy's next fleet of submarines
and also the air warfare destroyers.

The Government has also championed renewable energy, with SA now generating
more than half the nation's wind power and becoming a leader in solar power.

But there's been issues too.

Mr Rann has been forced to deny an affair with a former parliamentary waitress and
watched on as his deputy and long-serving treasurer Kevin Foley was twice assaulted.

A Labor MP was also
charged with child pornography offences
and was suspended from the ALP while there have also been
a simmering row with the union movement
over cuts to public sector jobs and conditions.

That row has characterised the sometimes wider criticism levelled at Mr Rann
and his government, that they don't always listen to the people or properly consult
before finalising projects or policies.

In a balancing act, the wins probably outweigh the losses, but as Mr Rann suggests,
the final say will be up to others.

"Overall I think that one day people will probably say all of these things were
about a state that's more confident about itself, more outward looking,"
he says.

"That we're a destination again rather than a beloved home town that people
had to leave to find opportunities elsewhere."

More personally, Mr Rann says being the SA Premier has been the
"greatest privilege of my life".

"I wanted to leave the state in better shape than I found it, and I wanted
to leave the party in better shape than when I took over," he says.

"I think on both of those there's big tick."

Mr Rann is expected to officially stand down as premier tomorrow.

Planning & buying

Some like to separate the planning and buying functions by calling it
communications planning or channel planning and traders or investors.
We simply call it implementation planning.

The two functions are intrinsically linked, we believe in one cohesive approach
with media owners to access every available asset for the best possible price.

The key reason being that channel mix, media weight and opportunities
to create memorable campaigns are relevant to cost and the key to a
‘win’ negotiation is not to be divided.

Implementation planning represents 80% of delivering a campaign to
market, we place a high importance on it and it’s why we back ourselves
with performance related remuneration structures.

Questions may cost taxpayers $2 million

Peter Mickelburough
THE State's biggest paper chase has been launched
by the State Opposition,
amid claims it could cost taxpayers millions.

Opposition paper chase
may have $2m price tag for taxpayers
by:Peter Mickelburough
From:Herald Sun
October 24, 2011 12:00AM
THE State's biggest paper chase has been launched by the State
Opposition and the Government claims it could cost taxpayers more than
$2 million.

Labor unleashed a barrage of 14,130 questions to government
ministers in 2828 five-part Questions on Notice in the Legislative
Council on one day in the last sitting week.

The torrent was a record for a single day
and dwarfs the total Questions on Notice
in the Upper House for all of 2008, 2009 and 2010 combined.

Just printing them to provide a copy to every MP was a major exercise.
Almost all were identical "cookie cutter" questions asking if ministers or
their staff had met representatives of various lobbying firms.
According to Department of Premier and Cabinet estimates,
answering Questions on Notice take public servants two to 15 hours.

This would put the time to answer Labor's requests at between 5600 and
42,400 hours, or between 700 and 5200 working days at a cost between
$280,000 and $2.1 million in wages.

Results: Paper Chase
Thanks for voting!

Is submitting the long list of questions a waste of taxpayers' cash?

Yes 83.87% (26 votes)
No 16.13% (5 votes)

Total votes: 31

Any answers will also have to be printed and distributed.

"Daniel Andrews and Labor are prepared to waste taxpayers' money even in
opposition - just like it did for 11 years when in government - divert
enormous public service resources and abuse parliamentary process for
nothing more than a political stunt," a government spokeswoman said.

But Opposition scrutiny of government spokesman Martin Pakula said the
flood of questions was a direct response to the Government's refusal to
answer questions inside or outside Parliament, including previous
questions about lobbyists.

"This Government is using every device it can to avoid scrutiny and is rapidly
becoming a highly secretive one that won't answer questions or explain itself," he said.

Mr Pakula said the exercise would not cost $2 million because the Government
would give generic "whole of government" responses as it had to similar questions
in the Lower House.

...but then, maybe not....

Commonwealth Ombudsman, Allan Asher

Mr Allan Asher
Allan Asher began his five-year appointment as
Commonwealth Ombudsman on 30 August 2010.

He has been an outspoken consumer advocate for some 40 years.

Before becoming Ombudsman,
Mr Asher was the inaugural chief
executive officer of
the Australian Communications Consumer Action
Network (ACCAN),
the peak advocacy body
for communications consumers.
Prior to ACCAN,

Consumers International, and from
2003 to 2008 was CEO of Energy Watch,
which protected consumer rights in a deregulated energy market.

At Energy Watch (now part of Consumer Focus), he helped curb
inappropriate conduct by energy companies that included cutting off
customers' power during Britain's freezing winters and using thugs to
bully people into signing unconscionable contracts.

Before leaving for Britain in 2000,
Mr Asher spent ten years at
the Australian Competition
and Consumer Commission (ACCC)
as Deputy Chairperson and Consumer Protection Commissioner.
Earlier in his career he spent 10 years at the Australian Consumers' Association.

Mr Asher studied law at The University of Sydney, and is admitted as
a Barrister and Solicitor to the High Court.

In addition to his role as Commonwealth Ombudsman, Mr Asher is the:

• ACT Ombudsman
  
• Postal Industry Ombudsman
  
• Defence Force Ombudsman
  
• Law Enforcement Ombudsman
  
• Immigration Ombudsman
  
• Taxation Ombudsman
  
• Overseas Students Ombudsman.
