Vocational Education and Training

The Hon. K.L. VINCENT (14:41): Supplementary, Mr President. I am sorry if I am repeating myself; I found it hard to hear the minister at times there. I appreciate the minister said that a number of students found their study relevant to their jobs, but how many graduates actually found a job in their field of study? I think 'relevant to' is a broad term.

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) (14:41): These are surveys conducted by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research. It is a national body, and these are the questions that they design and have asked. That is the only level of detail that I have.
