My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer him to the Minister for Education and Training's response to question on notice 108 given on 14 October regarding the Apprenticeships Training alternative delivery pilots program in which the Minister for Education and Training said:

I have not met with MBA, NECA or North East Vocational College about the program.

The minister representing him just confirmed that he has, in fact, met them. Has the Prime Minister asked the education minister to explain this photo that clearly shows—
