          <by role="member" id="4622">The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:01):</by>  My understanding from ASQA is that the process is that they provide a report to TAFE, which they have already done. They have a choice about whether to keep that confidential, which they have chosen at this stage. They could have put it immediately onto their website, but they chose not to do that in this instance. We then provide a report, and then a final report is made public by ASQA. I presume that that will encompass the issues that were raised and the response made by TAFE.</text>
