he??? The current Education Minister is Anna Bligh MP, Member for South
Brisbane. And i think it is unreasonable to expect ministers to be
knowledgeable on all areas - they become knowledgable in the areas they
are resposible for but still rely heavily on advisors who have more time
(because there are more of them) to look at these things in depth and
provide briefing papers. If you doubt a ministers knowledge in an area
of their resposibility put together some educated questions to ask them -
they do have to attend Community Cabinents as part of their duties.
