WOMEN'S EDUCATION PROGRAM

The Hon. M. PARNELL (15:23): I thank the minister for referring my questions to a fellow minister, but my question was: were you as the Minister for the Status of Women consulted about the closure of these course and, if not, why not?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for State/Local Government Relations, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Consumer Affairs, Minister for Government Enterprises, Minister Assisting the Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Energy) (15:23): I have given a response to that question. I will refer the questions to the minister in another place.
