          <by role="member" id="4363">The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:40):</by>  Supplementary arising from the original answer: the minister indicated that she had previously brought information to this place about the completion rates of Skills for All courses. On 3 June in this place, I asked her that question. She said she would bring back an answer. She has still not brought back an answer to my question: what are the numbers of students who have completed Skills for All courses?</text>
