I thank the member for Dobell for his question. I can confirm that, after four rounds of the Australian government’s $1.2 billion Investing in Our Schools Program, the electorate of Dobell has received over $4 million for 38 government schools for much-needed maintenance and repair work for those schools. I congratulate him on that outcome. The single most important investment that a nation can make is in a quality education for its young people.
