Joyce Review
The Hon. C.M. SCRIVEN (14:37): Further supplementary: will the minister advise how many jobs will be lost from his department as a result of this review?
The Hon. D.W. RIDGWAY (Minister for Trade, Tourism and Investment) (14:37): I thank the honourable member for her question. We are still working through all the machinery of government changes. I don't expect any jobs to be lost from my department throughout this. Some will transfer. Those negotiations are still going on at a chief executive level. The first tranche of changes will be implemented by 1 April and the final ones by 1 June. I don't believe there will be any losses from my department.
