DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION AND TRAINING - CORRUPTION AND CRIME COMMISSION INVESTIGATION
I refer to the comments made by the minister yesterday when she stated - At no point was I ever briefed by the director general of the department about the specific work of the CCC in the department. At no point was I briefed by the director general about any case of a sexual nature. I also refer to comments made by the former Director General of the Department of Education and Training, Paul Albert, during a media conference on 16 October when he said - I personally told her - That is, the minister - that the commission was investigating a number of cases concerning inappropriate sexual behaviour between teachers and students. Did the then director general advise the minister prior to 12 October that the CCC was conducting an investigation: yes or no? Hon LJILJANNA RAVLICH
