House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Answers to Questions Auditor-General's Report Auditor-General's Report In reply to Ms CHAPMAN House of Assembly Bragg Deputy Leader of the Opposition Auditor-General's Report In reply to Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (3 November 2016). The Hon. M.L.J. HAMILTON-SMITH House of Assembly Waite Minister for Investment and Trade Minister for Small Business Minister for Defence Industries Minister for Veterans' Affairs Auditor-General's Report The Hon. M.L.J. HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite—Minister for Investment and Trade, Minister for Small Business, Minister for Defence Industries, Minister for Veterans' Affairs): I thank Ms Chapman for her interest in this matter. I have sought advice from the Industry Advocate about the contract referred to on page 55 of the Executive Summary of the Auditor-General's Report. The Industry Advocate advises me the non-full compliance relates to a cleaning contract issued by TAFE SA that was initially put out to tender as an up to 5-year contract but ultimately awarded for up to 10 years. This caused the potential value of the contract to increase to a different threshold for submission and reporting requirements under the South Australian Industry Participation Policy. The Industry Advocate advises that, upon discovering this error, TAFE SA contacted the Office of the Industry Advocate and sought advice on how best to ensure compliance. The matter has been resolved to the satisfaction of the Industry Advocate.
