Mr MARSHALL (Dunstan—Leader of the Opposition) (14:47): Supplementary: given that 60 people will be retained for the transition time frame, what is that time frame and what will be the fate of those public servants after that transitionary period has ended?

The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy) (14:47): Either they will stay with the operations because they will obviously be under-resourced—the new providers want to see how they operate, so they will either receive an offer to stay, or they can return to government and be used internally within government—or they can take voluntary redundancies, but there is no plan to give any forced redundancies.
