Chapter 1 Introduction
Appendix A – Department of Finance and Deregulation letter to the Public Works Committee
Appendix B – Table of Budget Increases
In December 2003 the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Public Works (PWC) of the 40th Parliament tabled its report into the proposed respecified Christmas Island Immigration Reception and Processing Centre. The total estimated cost of the proposal was $276.2 million, including $197.7 million from the then Department of Finance and Administration (Finance) to bring the project to completion.
In January 2008 the Committee received a letter from Finance requesting its concurrence for a cost increase for the proposal, renamed the Christmas Island Immigration Detention Centre Project. The cost of the original proposal had grown to $396 million. Finance briefed the Committee on the cost increase on 26 June 2008. This report provides a background to the project, an outline of the June briefing, and the view of the Committee on the management of the project.
