1996/97 Overtime Allocation at Alice Springs Correctional Centre

1. How much of the 1996/97 allocation for overtime at the Alice Springs Correctional Centre has been spent to date.

ANSWER

As advised previously, overtime expenditure in Alice Springs to 30 September 1996 was approximately $190,000.

This level is abnormal due to the commissioning of the new centre and coverage for initial staff shortages pending recruitment.

The level of overtime usage has reduced since the appointment of additional staff in late October.
