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): I am advised: The WorkReady Subsidised Training List survey was conducted in April 2015 to provide specific opportunity for interested stakeholders to provide feedback about the streamlining of the Subsidised Training List. More than 1,500 respondents accessed the survey. Of these, over 50 individual respondents provided advice on courses in the Agriculture, Horticulture and Conservation and Land Management training package. I am advised that 40 submissions were made to the Department of State Development by Registered Training Organisations (RTOs), industry associations or employers, with the remainder being employment service agencies, the secondary school sector, local government or private citizens. The WorkReady policy settings are the culmination of input received over the life of Skills for All, including an external review and consultation by the Training and Skills Commission; not just the latest survey on the Subsidised Training List. Following the release of the Subsidised Training List I met with those RTOs that requested a meeting including: Primary Producers SA, 3July 2015 Regional Skills Training, 2July 2015 and 3July 2015 Grain Producers SA, 3July 2015 Australian Meat Industry Council, 8July 2015.
