Environment and Water Department

Dr CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (15:00): My question is to the Minister for Environment and Water. How many staff in the Department for Environment and Water have applied for TVSPs since the budget, and how many, specifically rangers, have applied for TVSPs?

The Hon. D.J. SPEIRS (Black—Minister for Environment and Water) (15:01): I am not aware of the operational aspects of targeted voluntary separation packages within the department. That is a matter for the chief executive to work through, as the deputy leader is fully aware.
