TAFE SA Audit

Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (15:46): Supplementary: is the minister now in a position to provide the house with the KPIs the TAFE board is using to determine whether the CEO and senior executives will cumulatively receive hundreds of thousands of dollars in bonuses?

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills) (15:47): I took that on notice two days ago, but in so doing—and I am not in a position to provide an update to the house today—I made it very clear that the concerns raised through this ASQA report, as yet an uncompleted process but the initial audit, will absolutely be part of what is taken into account by the board, and I have had that assurance from the chair of the board.
