Financial Wellbeing Program, Port Pirie

In reply to the Hon. G.G. BROCK (Frome) (2 May 2019).

The Hon. R. SANDERSON (Adelaide—Minister for Child Protection): I have been advised:

There are currently 3.0 FTE financial counsellors working from DCP's Port Pirie office.

As per the department's HR transition principles, all staff affected by the restructuring of the department's financial wellbeing services will be supported to transition to other roles within the department, or the wider public sector. The department's human resources team is currently working with affected staff to establish future career pathways, as well as training and support required to transition into new roles. The department is committed to finding positions within the department in which to place all affected staff, where a reasonable match in terms of skills and/or training is identified.
