Thank you, Minister, for confirming that the government's commitment is completely ambiguous. Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Yesterday, Mr Pyne said:

… I can say with absolute confidence that every school will get exactly the same amount of money, or in fact better now, than they would have if Labor had been elected.

I again refer the minister to his statement that there is no need for any school to be worse off. Given the inconsistency with the minister's own statement in question time, who should Australian parents, students and teachers believe?
