          <by role="member" id="4343">Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:08):</by>  Supplementary, sir. Given the minister's answer and given the announcement earlier this week that the government's original savings strategy of firing 49 staff is now off the table, which parts of the corrections portfolio will be cut, and how and when will that take place?</text>

PICCOLO (Light—Minister for Disabilities, Minister for Police, Minister for Correctional Services, Minister for Emergency Services, Minister for Road Safety) (15:09):</by>  I thank the honourable member for his question. I will just bring to the member's attention, if he has not already seen it, a joint communiqué put out by the corrections management and the relevant union, the PSA, saying that they will work together to identify savings so that we can actually meet our government requirements. Given that that communiqué was only released last week, I don't have an answer for you today.</text>
