The Commission is responsible for the integrity of the Western Australian Tourism Commissions web site. I have not been engaged to report on the integrity of the Western Australian Tourism Commissions web site. The audit opinion refers only to the statements named below. It does not provide an opinion on any other information which may have been hyperlinked to or from these statements. If users of this opinion are concerned with the inherent risks arising from electronic data communications, they are advised to refer to the hard copy of the audited financial statements to confirm the information included in the audited financial statements presented on this web site. Scope I have audited the accounts and financial statements of the Western Australian Tourism Commission for the year ended June 30, 2002 under the provisions of the Financial Administration and Audit Act 1985. The Commission is responsible for keeping proper accounts and maintaining adequate systems of internal control, preparing and presenting the financial statements, and complying with the Act and other relevant written law. The primary responsibility for the detection, investigation and prevention of irregularities rests with the Commission. My audit was performed in accordance with section 79 of the Act to form an opinion based on a reasonable level of assurance. The audit procedures included examining, on a test basis, the controls exercised by the Commission to ensure financial regularity in accordance with legislative provisions, evidence to provide reasonable assurance that the amounts and other disclosures in the financial statements are free of material misstatement and the evaluation of accounting policies and significant accounting estimates. These procedures have been undertaken to form an opinion as to whether, in all material respects, the financial statements are presented fairly in accordance with Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia and the Treasurers Instructions so as to present a view which is consistent with my understanding of the Commissions financial position, its financial performance and its cash flows. The audit opinion expressed below has been formed on the above basis. 4 th Floor Dumas House 2 Havelock Street West Perth 6005 Western Australia Tel: 08 9222 7500 Fax: 08 9322 5664 Audit Opinion In my opinion, (i) the controls exercised by the Western Australian Tourism Commission provide reasonable assurance that the receipt, expenditure and investment of moneys and the acquisition and disposal of property and the incurring of liabilities have been in accordance with legislative provisions; and (ii) the Statement of Financial Performance, Statement of Financial Position and Statement of Cash Flows and the Notes to and forming part of the financial statements are based on proper accounts and present fairly in accordance with applicable Accounting Standards and other mandatory professional reporting requirements in Australia and the Treasurers Instructions, the financial position of the Commission at June 30, 2002 and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended.

Key Performance Indicators Key Performance Indicators at Outcome Level Introduction Mindarie Keys Resort, Perth These indicators provide a comprehensive overview of the degree to which the two outcomes for WATC have been achieved. These are: (a) promotion of Western Australia as an attractive tourist destination; and (b) an enhanced tourist industry, infrastructure and product base. The WATC also seeks to enhance the image of Western Australia, nationally and internationally and increase overall industry performance as an important contribution to the State’s economy and development. The WATC does not control the very highest level results, such as level of visitation, visitor expenditure and investment as these are dependent on a range of factors and influences, many outside the Commission’s direct control or influence. However, the WATC plays an important role in contributing to the overall success of the industry, through its outputs and their relationship to higher-level government desired outcomes.
