The government welcomes the opportunity to speak about its performance when responding to estimates questions on notice. A total of 8,628 questions were placed on notice at the 2023-24 budget estimates. Only 287 remained unanswered, which represents three per cent of the total. This contrasts with the performance of the former government, which routinely tabled hundreds of answers to questions on notice on the morning of estimates hearings or whilst they were underway.

Question agreed to.
