Home Insulation Program

Mr Fletcher asked the Minister for Climate Change and Energy Efficiency, in writing, 21 May 2012:

In respect of the claim submitted by the Demand Group under the Scheme for Compensation for Detriment caused by Defective Administration arising out of the Home Insulation Program, can he indicate by full position title, which Deputy Secretary of his Department will be the 'decision maker'.

Mr Combet: The answer to the honourable member's question is as follows:

I have authorised anyone occupying the position of Deputy Secretary of the Department of Climate Change and Energy Efficiency to make CDDA decisions on my behalf. It is not possible to identify who will be the decision-maker for a particular matter until the matter is ready for decision. A decision-maker for the Demand Group's matter will be identified when it is ready for final decision, having regard to the availability of officers.
