My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's comments at the G20 over the weekend that:

… we have tried to deregulate higher education, universities, and that's going to mean less central government spending and effectively more fees that students will have to pay.

In light of this belated admission, can the minister advise the Senate how much more the government will force students to pay?
