School Funding

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:55): My question is to the Minister for Education. Has the total amount of additionality funding delivered under the Gonski agreement in 2014 and 2015 been delivered to schools?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (14:55): I will take it on notice because I don't want to unwittingly mislead. In the time that I have been minister, which obviously was at the beginning of 2015, we made a decision during the course of that year to provide the additionality to schools. There is some softness around that because there are some agreed priorities, but I will get a comprehensive answer in order to not mislead.

Ms Chapman: How is that annual report going?

The SPEAKER: The deputy leader is on two warnings.

Members interjecting:

The SPEAKER: The member for Florey is called to order. The member for Adelaide.
