TAFE SA

Mr PISONI (Unley) (15:48): Supplementary, if I may, sir. What mechanism has the government used to give TAFE its independent statutory corporation status since 1 November, given that facilitating legislation has not passed the parliament?

The Hon. G. PORTOLESI (Hartley—Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills, Minister for Science and Information Economy) (15:48): I believe the member is referring to consequential legislation that has not passed in the other house but, again, I am happy to talk with the member further because I don't quite understand his question—because TAFE is effective 1 November 2012. It is effective; it is operational.
