I thank the minister for his answer and I have a supplementary question, but I note that the minister's answer did not say when or how much, which was what I specifically asked about. To follow up the minister's contradictory comments yesterday about the government's renewed focus on Asian languages despite it ending the National Asian Languages and Studies in Schools Program last financial year, can the minister please provide details of exactly how the government will improve Asian language literacy in schools throughout Australia, particularly public schools? Will this funding be in addition to the Gonski funding?
