I refer to the public forum held in Albany last week relating to raising the school leaving age. Can the minister please inform the House of the response of the Albany community to the consultation process? Mr A.J. CARPENTER

It was a very good response. Over 100 people turned up at the forum, and a lunch was held with 25 community and business leaders. It was a good forum that expressed strong support for the concept. I thank the member for Albany for the pivotal role he played in pulling it all together. I look forward to similarly successful forums elsewhere.
