My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his promises that ‘no child between year 9 and year 12 shall be without a computer’ and for ‘a trades training centre for every secondary school’ at the last election. Given that the free-falling computers in schools program has doubled to $2 billion and only 34 trades training centres have been approved for Australia’s 2,650 secondary schools, what confidence can the Australian people possibly have that yesterday’s promises for schools will be any less hollow?
