The recruitment and retention of
staff in all sectors right around the state is a challenge, whether it is for
small businesses in the north or government agencies. It is an incredibly
challenging time at the moment. The department, like other agencies, including
the police, is running very proactive programs to make sure that we can get
people placed into the Target 120 program. But I repeat what I said yesterday:
it is incredibly frustrating when all the opposition
seeks to do is diminish people's desire to go to regional towns, with
its constant and continual downplaying of these towns.
