The Hon. B.I. BOYER (Wright—Minister for Education, Training and Skills): I have been advised that for the Department for Education:

As required by the Department of the Premier and Cabinet Circular PC013—Annual Reporting Requirements information relating to expenditure on consultants and contractors including the vendor, total cost and nature of work undertaken, will be detailed in annual reports published by agencies in due course.

The estimated total cost for engagement of consultants in 2022-23 is $2 million as outlined in the 2022-23 Agency Statements, Volume 1, page 193. Decisions about consultants are made on a case by case basis. The department is currently finalising its 2021-22 annual financial statements, which will outline actual costs for then 2021-22 financial year. Following this process, I will provide details to you about estimated financial commitments into 2022-23 relating to these existing engagements.

For contractors, decisions that are taken by the department to engage the services of contractors in order for it to deliver on its objectives. Again, the department will outline the names of the contracting firms where there is a commitment in 2022-23.
