Question Time

TAFE SA

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:08): I have a supplementary question for the Minister for Higher Education and Skills. Given the minister said in her previous answer that she had had several conversations with the chair of the TAFE board and potentially others, why hasn't the minister told the TAFE board chair that she will direct him not to provide these bonuses?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:09): First of all, I have confidence in the chair of the TAFE board to undertake the appropriate action and, secondly, the process is not yet completed that would warrant such a final decision.
