My question is to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister has repeatedly claimed that there will be no $100,000 degrees in Australia, but it has been revealed today that, because of the government's changes to universities, fees for medical students at the University of Western Australia will increase to more than $100,000. Why does this Prime Minister want to take Australia down the path of American universities, where degrees cost $100,000 or more?
