My question is to the Minister for Education. Last year, the minister said the government was not considering increases to university fees, because:

… we promised that we wouldn’t and Tony Abbott made it very clear before the election that we would keep our promises.

Is doubling university fees and threatening a cut to university funding what the minister meant by 'a government that keeps its promises'?
