My question without notice is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Abetz. I refer to the Prime Minister's repeated promises prior to the election two years ago that there would be no cuts to education. Can the minister confirm that the government is still intending to cut funding for undergraduate places at universities by an average of 20 per cent and up to 37 per cent for some courses?
