My question—my last question—is addressed to the Minister representing the Minister for Education, Senator Carr. I refer to the government’s decision to abolish full-fee places, and ask the minister if he is aware of some concern in the higher education sector that the compensation is approximately half what was expected. I ask the minister to outline to the Senate exactly how the formula was created, or how the compensation package was formulated.
