(2) What number went to each of the three groups of providers.

(3) Why were only 500 (less than 15 percent of the total) places made available through Skilled Capital.

(4) How was the information about the JobTrainer Skilled Capital fund made available, particularly to private RTOs in the ACT?

(5) How many of these organisations applied for the funding.

(6) How many were successful in gaining the funding.

(7) How much of the fund amount of $16.75 million has been disbursed.

(8) How much of that has gone to (a) CIT and (b) Ginninderry SPARKS

(9) How much of that was accessed by private RTOs.

(10) How much remains and where will this be allocated.

Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:

(1) Under the JobTrainer Skilled Capital release, 25 independent registered training organisations (RTOs) enrolled 554 students in 42 courses. Of these 42 courses, 38 were full qualifications and four were short courses.
