          <by role="member" id="3124">Mr PISONI (Unley) (14:48):</by>  My question is to the Minister for Higher Education and Skills. Can the minister advise the house as to whether the investigation into departmental employee Jillian Pyle's use of public sector resources to run her Semaphore hotel is complete and, if so, what was the outcome? In May last year, it was first revealed a departmental employee, Ms Pyle, was using public sector resources from her government office in Waymouth Street to run her Semaphore Hotel. In July the then skills minister, the Hon. Gail Gago in the other place, told the Estimates Committee that an investigation had in fact been underway since May 2015 and that Ms Pyle was suspended on full pay. In subsequent answers to questions in September and again in November 2015 the minister indicated that the investigation was still ongoing.</text>
