Education Department Budget

In reply to the Hon. J.A.W. GARDNER (Morialta—Deputy Leader of the Opposition) (26 June 2024). (Estimates Committee A)

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

The increase between the 2023-24 original budget of $5.614million and the 2023-24 revised budget of $5.793million for employee benefit payments is due to an increase in funding allocated to the advocacy bodies during 2023-24 for:

$75,000 for the Commissioner for Children and Young People for the Children in the North initiative.

$42,000 for the Child Development Council to employ an engagement co-ordinator.

$25,000 provided to the advocacy bodies associated with an increase to the superannuation guarantee rate from 1 July 2023.

$24,000 of funding transferred from supplies and services to employee benefits by the Commissioner for Children and Young People to fund staffing.

$14,000 associated with increase to executive salaries.'
