My question is to the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Minister for Education and Minister for Social Inclusion. Is the minister aware that in the first 17½ months of the operation of the Productivity Places Program fewer than seven per cent of the job seekers who enrolled in the training program went on to obtain a job? At a seven per cent success rate, does the minister believe the program represents value for money for Australian taxpayers?
