asked the Minister representing the Minister for Defence, upon notice, on 9 November 2011:

In regard to quarterly accountability reports:

(1) Has the list of ‘designated key projects’ been determined and the reporting mechanism instituted; if so, can a list be provided.

(2) Has the first report been provided as planned in October 2011; if so, can a copy be provided.

(3) How does the list of ‘designated key projects’ differ from those projects listed as Projects of Concern, those projects included in the Major Projects Report, and those projects that trigger Early Indicators and Warning system.

(4) How does the quarterly accountability reporting mechanism ‘improve accountability and pick up problems early’ in any way not achieved through the Early Indicators and Warnings system.
