The Hon. T.A. FRANKS (14:37): Supplementary: does the minister use ABS figures to evaluate the success of the spending of public money, or does she use actual outcomes from reporting through the sector?

The Hon. G.E. GAGO (Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills, Minister for Science and Information Economy, Minister for the Status of Women, Minister for Business Services and Consumers) (14:38): As the honourable member would be well aware, we collect a range of data that looks—particularly since Skills for All has been in place— at measuring success using a number of different measures: participation rates, completion rates and employment outcomes. I have talked about all of those figures in this place, so they are well and truly on the record in Hansard for the honourable member to see.
