Questions in Writing
Paul Fletcher Bradfield, Liberal Party, Shadow Minister for Government Services and the Digital Economy
3:50 pm
Mr Speaker, in accordance with standing order 105(b), I wish to draw your attention to two overdue questions in writing: questions Nos 71 and 69. On 6 February 2023, I asked the Minister for Government Services about ICT job cuts at Services Australia. I also asked the minister about the minister's meeting with members of the myGov user audit. I ask that you write to the Minister for Government Services seeking his reasoning as to why he has not responded for more than 60 days, in contravention of the standing orders.

Mr Speaker, also in accordance with standing order 105(b), I wish to draw your attention to two overdue questions in writing: questions Nos 82 and 86. Can I ask that you write to the Minister for Health and Aged Care and the Minister for Veterans' Affairs and seek their explanation as to why they have chosen to contravene the standing orders by not answering these questions for more than 60 days.
