Dear NSW Department of Education,

I'd like to make a request under the Freedom of Information Act 1982.

Could you please provide the total amount of funds spent on closing down the TAFE NSW Training and Education Support (TES) Units in 2014.

Please include total amount spent on staff redundancies.

If possible, separate totals for each TES unit (eg Industry Skills Unit-Ultimo, Industry Skills Unit-Orange/Granville, Social Inclusion & Vocational Access Skills Unit, eHub etc).

Yours faithfully,
Darren Gray
