TAFE SA, Director Appointment

The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Leader of the Opposition) (15:52): I have a final supplementary question. When did the minister become aware of Mr Jadynne Harvey's appointment to the role?

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) (15:53): I could not give you a date. I was informed after he was informed—

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: So you were briefed.

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: I was not briefed. I was informed of his appointment some time after he was appointed but I do not have the date in my mind.

The Hon. D.W. Ridgway: So you were briefed.

The Hon. G.E. GAGO: I was not briefed. What I said was that I was informed of his appointment. I do not know when that was. It was relatively recently; some time between the parliament sitting and now. I don't know the exact date. I was advised that he was appointed and that was it.
