At the school closure consultation meeting for Tuggeranong Minister Barr admitted that the capacity figures for Gilmore and Isabella Plains were inflated by the presence of temporary buildings. He refused to conduct an audit to correct the Department’s figures, stating that the Principal of the school can request an audit of school capacity. The Minister has stated he wants a rational debate. How can we have a rational debate without the correct figures? Should we put this down to incompetence, laziness or deceit?
