Can the minister please update the house on the progress of the review of the regional school bus policy? With your leave, sir, and that of the house I will explain further.</text>

          <by role="member" id="3533">The Hon. G.G. BROCK:</by>  I have been asking this question since September 2018, I understand that the review was completed in February last year and here we are in 2020. I just ask the minister: can I get an update of where that is and when we can expect to have an answer?</text>

          <by role="member" id="4343">The Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Minister for Education) (14:43):</by>  I thank the member for the question. To my understanding, I think February last year isn't a fair characterisation of saying the review was completed. I think that there was a body of work that was completed and then there was a great deal of further information that was explored. I will refer the member to previous answers, with the caveat that we can add a few weeks and we are that much closer to having the final answer. I am really looking forward to being able to share that with the member for Frome very soon.</text>
