TAFE SA

The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (14:30): For future reference, could the minister tell us what, if any, are the non-operational matters relating to TAFE, so what can we actually ask the minister about in relation to TAFE?

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) (14:31): I have already indicated in this place what the responsibility of government is in terms of broad policy and I have also indicated that we are the funding provider and that TAFE is the service provider. It doesn't take rocket science to be able to work out which questions would be relevant to ask the minister and which questions would be relevant to send on to the board.
