Parliament calls on Minister to reverse TAFE cuts
The Parliament has called on Minister for Skills and Jobs Felix Ellis to reverse the $45 million worth of cuts TasTAFE has been forced to find after 13 years of the Liberals.
Last night, a Labor motion calling on the Minister to reverse the cuts, while also ordering him to table full details of where the cuts will fall successfully passed the Lower House.
After 13 years of the Liberals, Tasmanians are paying for their waste through cuts to critical services like TasTAFE.
Premier Rockliff and Eric Abetz' cuts will decimate courses, threaten jobs and undermine Tasmania's skills pipeline.
Yet this week we've seen Minister Ellis refuse to acknowledge the impact, instead choosing to gaslight Tasmanians.
Labor's motion will ensure he's forced to come clean, so there's at least some transparency about the Liberals' plan to gut TasTAFE to pay for 13 years of waste.
