Stephan Ridgway on 21 May 13The LH Martin Institute recently provided a submission to the House of Representatives Inquiry into the role of TAFE. In our submission we proposed a new national partnership that would supersede the current National Partnership Agreement, which was established in April 2012 at the Council of Australian Governments meeting but has since broken down in key respects such as overall funding of VET and maintaining the capacity of TAFE. The new national partnership we are suggesting would be based on the outcomes of a "TAFE base funding review" recommended by the AWPA; provide for the maintenance of current funding levels per student contact; recognise the role of TAFE as a comprehensive service provider; and consider the efficacy of current national arrangements.
