Questions on notice
Due date for answers to questions on notice
In the 44th Parliament, the committee set 17
June 2016 as the date by which answers to questions on notice from the
Budget Estimates 2016-17 hearing were to be returned. Following the
dissolution of both Houses of Parliament with effect from 9.00am on 9 May
2016 for the federal election, unanswered questions on notice lapsed.
Following the opening of the 45th
Parliament, on 31 August 2016, the Senate agreed that answers be provided by
14 September 2016 to all legislation committees relating to all questions
taken on notice by the committees’ predecessor committees with respect to
the 2015-16 additional estimates and the 2016-17 budget estimates, and which
remained unanswered at the beginning of the new Parliament.
