School Amalgamations

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:14): A supplementary: will the minister discuss options to revitalise the school in the event that the school parents at Pasadena—

The Hon. A. Koutsantonis interjecting:

Mr GARDNER: —do choose not to close?

The SPEAKER: Yes, the Treasurer is right: it's out of order as a hypothetical question.

Mr GARDNER: Sir, a different supplementary then: why does the minister say that Unley High School parents will choose whether or not to accept the merger when the opposition has been informed, and in fact parents have been informed, that Unley High School parents will not be voting on the merger?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:14): I will have to confirm the advice being provided to me and clarify that matter.
