I thank the honourable member for
some notice of the question.
(1) One school has had its program
reduced.
(2) It is West Northam Primary
School.
(3) Yes.
The Minister for Education wishes to
correct the record, which will be of interest to the honourable member for
several reasons, for question without notice 1557, which also relates to
in-term swimming at Swan View Primary School.
It was 42 schools, not 41. Inglewood Primary School was accidentally left off.
I should apologise for the error.
