Answer

I am advised that the operational costs associated with the Carbon Neutral Government Programme, such as the emissions verification fee, were $0.02 million in the 2025 calendar year. I am further advised that in relation to the Capital Plan, Corrections spent $13.0 million on electric vehicles and boiler replacement programmes in the 2025 calendar year.
