Mrs BRAHAM - 2006-02-22

In the Gazette, dated today, there is a contract awarded to a New South Wales firm for $625 862:
    Alice Springs - Supply Equipment, Technical Advisor, 2 Accompanying Commissioning Engineers
    from Sweden Travel/Living Expenses.

That is over $600 000 to a New South Wales firm to bring these people to Alice Springs. I assume it might have something to do with the noisy generator at the Ron Goodin Power Station, however, I would like to know exactly what that tender is for and why did it go to a New South Wales firm to bring these people from Sweden?

ANSWER

Madam Speaker, I am not conversant with the exact details of that particular tender. I undertake to supply that information to the member for Braitling as soon as I am able.
