Senator Robert Ray asked the Special Minister of State, upon notice, on 9 March 1999:

Was any equipment from the Government Members Secretariat relocated to Melbourne between 30 August 1998 and 5 October 1998; if so, what equipment and what was the cost of relocating such equipment.


Senator Ellison (Special Minister of State) —The answer to the honourable senator's question is as follows:

No. The Department has been advised by the Government Members' Secretariat that four staff who regularly use laptop computers whilst in Canberra and when travelling had their laptops with them as a matter of course whilst they were in Melbourne between those dates. There was no additional cost involved.
