TAFE SA

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (14:40): Supplementary: can the minister advise the house how many students are undertaking the automotive meat processing, commercial cookery, health, hairdressing, visual merchandising, building, plumbing and electrotechnology courses that have been called into question?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (14:40): The level of briefing, as I mentioned, has been very preliminary and did not include the number of students undertaking those courses.

Mr Knoll interjecting:

The SPEAKER: Does the member for Schubert want to be the first member ejected under sessional orders since the TV system was introduced?

Mr GARDNER: I fear you are buttressing the audience again, and that is against standing orders.

Mr Knoll: Existentially, there is nothing about the audience in the standing orders.

Mr GARDNER: The Speaker has ruled otherwise. Sir, I have a supplementary.

The SPEAKER: The member for Morialta.
