Consultants and Contractors

In reply to the Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta) (23 June 2025). (Estimates Committee A)

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

Decisions about consultants are made on a case-by-case basis. The estimated total budget for engagement of consultants in 2025-26 has been set at $2 million as outlined in the 2025-26 Agency Statements, Volume 1, page 188.

With respect to contractors, the department engages services as required to support the delivery of its objectives. The details of all contractors that were engaged in the 2024-25 financial year above $10,000 will be published in the department’s 2024-25 annual report.
