WESTERN Australia's top fine defaulter has been revealed as a Perth cabinetmaking firm which has failed to pay a $250,000 penalty over the workplace death of a 17-year-old.
Quadtilla Pty Ltd pleaded guilty to failing to provide a safe workplace for the pre-apprentice, who was crushed to death when a heavy stack of boards fell on him at its Wangara premises in Perth's north in November 2008.
But on a new website launched by the state government on Wednesday, it's been revealed the company has yet to pay the fine nearly five years on.
The name and shame initiative is aimed at helping the WA government recoup a total of $259 million owed in unpaid infringements and court fines.
More than 5000 people owe about $2000 each for red-light camera offences and speeding fines.
Under new laws, the Sheriff's Office can wheel clamp vehicles for 48 hours or seize licence plates for 28 days if a person has more than $2000 in unpaid fines and infringements.
Attorney-General Michael Mischin said the total amount of money that had been paid in recent weeks was almost $4 million.
But that did not include six parties who owed more than $100,000 in fines, including Able Lott Holdings which last year was fined $181,000 for planning offences involving the inner city development of a heritage building.
The individual owing the most money was named as Carmelo Charles Saliba from the northern Perth suburb of Noranda, who according to the website owes the government $192,760.20.
