Education and Child Development Department Employees

Mr GRIFFITHS (Goyder) (15:24): A supplementary to the minister: in providing this fulsome answer, can the minister confirm that the emergency relief teachers will receive a salary cut of 2½ per cent in 2017 as identified on page 91 of Part B of the Auditor-General's Report?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:25): I can't see any reason why emergency relief teachers wouldn't be receiving the same industrial conditions but, given that the member is operating off some detailed information, I would rather take it on notice and make sure that I get an exact answer.
