House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, First Session (53-1) 53 1 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Service SA Service SA Mr WINGARD House of Assembly Mitchell Service SA Mr WINGARD (Mitchell) (15:18): Why is Service SA offering redundancy packages to permanent staff members while continuing to employ temp agency staff? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Finance Minister for State Development Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Minister for Small Business Service SA The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy, Minister for Small Business) (15:18): We expect all agencies to meet their efficiency dividends and, if they're offering voluntary redundancies to their staff, it's their right. People have a choice; they don't have to take them and it's up to them whether they take those redundancies. I'll say this: we're not the ones who had secret plans to sack 25,000 public servants: it was the opposition.
