Minister, the students can see right through your PR farce. The Job-ready Graduates scheme was an unmitigated disaster. With punitive fee hikes that punished students and tried to manipulate their study choices, it was a disgraceful plan to start off with. In opposition Labor said the scheme was beyond repair, and the uni accord process has said that the scheme needs urgent remediation. Minister, with a progressive parliament, you have the numbers to immediately scrap Job-ready Graduates. Why won't you? (Time expired)
