None so deaf as those who will not hear

Hon Pete Hodgson
Minister for Tertiary Education

25 June 2008 Media Release

None so deaf as those who will not hear

Dr Hutchison remains deaf in his party’s policy vacuum, Tertiary Education Minister Pete Hodgson said today.

“As was explained in Select Committee today this government has reduced the number of staff in the Tertiary Education Commission.

“At the end of the Commission’s first year it had 297 staff. It now has 287. That is a decrease.

“Unfortunately Dr Hutchison continues to drone on, giving truth to the saying, ‘There are none so deaf as those who will not hear.’ “
