TAFE SA

The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (15:04): Supplementary: how can the students and staff of TAFE SA have confidence in you as the minister if you do not even know what acts are committed to you as the minister?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (15:05): Again, if the Hon. Tammy Franks really wanted to expend her efforts in a constructive and powerful way, I would be urging her to come and join us to fight against the federal Liberal government's savage, cruel cuts to our training sector. It will have a profound impact on training throughout the state.

It will impact on people's lives—young people's lives and also the lives of older South Australians who have been retrenched and want to reskill or upskill to be able to re-enter the workforce. I would urge the Hon. Tammy Franks to come and join us in opposing these savage, cruel federal Liberal government cuts. I have already put on the record that I am happy to take those questions on notice and I will bring back a response.
