MARJA LUBECK (Chairperson of the Education and Workforce Committee): Thank you, Madam Chair. Just changing the mode a little bit here. As chair of the Education and Workforce Committee, I'm delighted to kick off the annual review debate on the education portfolio. I'm sure there will be many interesting contributions, and I'm looking forward to hearing from the Minister of Education. But first, I'm going to give a brief overview and an outline of the process that our select committee went through for this particular review. The education sector annual review was comprised of seven in-depth annual reviews for different Government entities. They were the Ministry of Education, the Education Review Office, the Tertiary Education Commission, the New Zealand Qualifications Authority, Education Payroll Ltd, Network for Learning Ltd, and Education New Zealand. We conducted a briefing with the Office of the Auditor-General; a hearing with the Minister of Education, the Hon Chris Hipkins; with the chief executive of the education sector entity; and we also asked many written questions of them all. There were some key themes that came out of that deliberation, and that was shown in our annual review report.
