Statement of priority
29 Statement of priority
A statement of priority must be prepared by the
Minister that outlines the government's priorities for TAFE SA in respect of a financial year or such other period as may be specified by the Minister in the statement.
Without limiting the generality of subsection (1), a statement of priority may set out requirements that address governance and financial standards and other matters relating to the functions of TAFE SA and the objects of this
Act.
The Minister must provide a statement of priority to TAFE
SA—
in the case of the first statement of priority prepared under this section—within a reasonable time after the commencement of this section;
or
in any other case—within a reasonable time before the commencement of the period to which the statement of priority relates.
The Minister must, before the end of each financial year, in consultation with the Treasurer and TAFE SA, review the statement of priority.
The Minister may, at any time, after consultation with the
Treasurer and TAFE SA, amend a statement of priority (and the Minister must, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide the amended statement of priority to
TAFE SA).
TAFE SA must, on receiving a statement of priority or an amended statement of priority, review and make such changes to its business plan as may be required to address the requirements set out in the statement or amended statement (as the case may be).
