20405 (2025). Francisco Hernandez to the Minister for Social Investment: How much, if anything, did the Minister's departments, agencies, crown entities and any other bodies that the Minister is responsible for, if any, spend on flights in 2024, broken down into international and domestic flights?
Hon Nicola Willis: I have been advised that the Social Investment Agency spent $16,151 on domestic flights on domestic flights from 1 July 2024 to 31 December 2024, there was no spend on international travel during this time. I refer the member to the 2024/25 Annual Review of the Social Wellbeing Agency for costs for the 2023/24 financial year as this is publicly available information. Further, this information, as requested by the Member, is collated by financial year, not calendar year and I do not consider the diversion of resource required to undertake this collation exercise to be in the public interest.
