Parliamentary Questions


Question Without Notice No. 14 asked in the Legislative Council on 13 March 2018 by Hon Colin Holt

Parliament: 40 Session: 1


CAMP SCHOOLS — NON-GOVERNMENT OPERATORS
      14. Hon COLIN HOLT to the Minister for Education and Training:
I refer to the minister's comments in the Kalgoorlie Miner of 2 March in which she said —
      ''We have already been contacted by highly reputable not-for-profit organisations, highly regarded organisations who are interested in taking over the running of those camp sites.
(1) How many organisations have contacted the minister?
(2) Which organisations have contacted the minister?
(3) Can the minister guarantee the same level of service will be maintained without the government?
(4) Can the minister guarantee that fees will not rise for the use of these facilities?
Hon SUE ELLERY replied:
I thank the honourable member for some notice of the question.
      (1) Eight organisations and a number of private individuals have contacted either my office or the Department of Education.
      (2) It is not appropriate to divulge the names of those organisations and individuals at this point. They have expressed an interest to be involved in a commercial process.
      (3)–(4) A procurement process that outlines the expectations of government will be undertaken. This will include expectations about service delivery and pricing for school students.
