Answer

I am advised by the Department of Internal Affairs that records for amounts paid for electricity and LPG / gas supplied to Premier House are held as a combined amount. The table sets out the amounts paid for electricity and gas for each month of the 2025/26 financial year. Financial Year 2025/26 Energy (Electricity & Gas) GST excl. Jul $2,803.32 Aug $2,731.45 Sep $5,067.08 Oct $4,286.09 Nov $1,040.74 Dec $1,830.16 Jan $9,168.73 Feb $1,905.69 Mar $2,248.25 Apr $2,560.49 May $3,052.31 Jun $6,049.25 Total $42,743.56 Information relating to prior financial years 2020/21 – 2024/25 is not available without substantial collation and review. Data from the 2016/17 to 2019/20 financial years are held within the Department’s legacy system and cannot be accessed. I also refer the Member to reply number 38017 (2026).
