Personal Explanation

Automotive Workers in Transition Program

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (14:19): I seek leave to make a personal explanation in relation to a statement I made on 5 May and following a question from the Hon. Andrew McLachlan yesterday.

Leave granted.

The Hon. J.M.A. Lensink: He caught you out.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: He is very good. On advice from the department, I made the statement in relation to the Automotive Workers in Transition Program that:

Training can be accessed through 15 pre-approved registered training organisations that have been identified through a comprehensive selection process.

I can inform the chamber that this was incorrect advice: training can be accessed through any training provider. There are, however, 15 organisations that are able to provide skills recognition advice to workers through the program.

The PRESIDENT: Does the Hon. Mr McLachlan accept his explanation?

The Hon. A.L. McLACHLAN: Yes, sir, and I thank the minister for it.
