EDUCATION, ADULT RE-ENTRY

Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:52): My question is to the Premier. What advice did the Commissioner for Social Inclusion (Monsignor David Cappo) give the Premier about the Sustainable Budget Commission's recommendation to save $20.3 million by discontinuing funding for DECS re-entry programs for the approximately 4,000 students over the age of 21?

Members interjecting:

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY (Port Adelaide—Deputy Premier, Treasurer, Minister for Federal/State Relations, Minister for Defence Industries) (14:53): Of course, some of us did not finish high school—

The SPEAKER: Order! I cannot hear the Treasurer.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: —or go to university. Some of us were just born brilliant.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Will the Treasurer answer the question.

The Hon. K.O. FOLEY: They are rocket scientists over that side. David Cappo was on the Sustainable Budget Commission and signed off on the recommendations.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Order! Member for Unley, if your side will be quiet we can listen to your question.
