I want to correct a slight mistake in an answer I gave to the member for La Trobe today. I said in my answer that the percentage of Victorian children enrolled in Catholic and independent schools was higher than in any other part of Australia. I should have said it was higher than in any other state. In fact the percentage in that category in the ACT is higher than anywhere else, but amongst the states Victoria has the highest enrolment of children in independent and Catholic schools at 35 per cent, against a nationwide average of 33 per cent.
