Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Firstly, could the minister define 'shortly'? Education and training providers are waiting to know if they will have access to the proposed new streamlined arrangements for visa applications. It is feared that only large providers will have access to these arrangements, seriously disadvantaging smaller providers, including many quality providers in South Australia. Can the minister indicate whether this has been taken into account when shaping the new framework?
