How does the minister see the significant reduction in places for Certificate III in Agriculture as possibly supporting the government's commitment to regional development, food production and agriculture?</text>

          <by role="member" id="4622">The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:55):</by>  The entire point about the way that the WorkReady program is being constructed is to allow people to study something that will lead to a job. What we don't want is to have courses where people are spending time getting a qualification for which there is not enough work. So, with the very heavy data-driven process that has been gone through to determine where there are vacancies and where there is an inadequate number of qualified people, we'll have a fully subsidised approach.</text>
