Mr President — Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich : Come on! We haven’t got all day! The PRESIDENT : Order! That is not required and it is unhelpful. Minister for Transport. Hon SIMON O’BRIEN : On behalf of the Minister for Training, I have quite a few questions with some notice standing in the name of the honourable member. I was not able to identify the specific one in the course of her reading. Was it the question of which notice was given on Wednesday, 16 September? Hon Ken Travers : The minister can table all of them. That would probably solve the problem. Hon Ljiljanna Ravlich : No; it is the two-part one. It is probably the only two-part one. The PRESIDENT : Can I suggest the member provide a copy of that question to the minister. The minister can look at it and provide the answer at the end of question time, if the answer is available. In the meantime, we can move on. Hon SIMON O’BRIEN : Mr President, I believe I have it. It is the question. Firstly, on behalf of the Minister for Training, without any sense of irony at all, I thank the honourable member for some notice of this question. (1) The 11 initiatives support the whole training system, including employers and apprentices and trainees. The $10.6 million initiative to provide a rebate on workers’ compensation premiums directly supports employers of apprentices and trainees. (2) The stimulus package of $47.4 million included $47.1 million to fund the 11 initiatives outlined on page 5 of “Training WA: Planning for the future 2009-2018” and supports the whole training system, including TAFE colleges and private providers.
