I inform the House that the Minister for Education, Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations and Minister for Social Inclusion will be absent from question time today as she is leading a parliamentary delegation to the United States of America and Israel. In the United States, I understand, she will be meeting with the Vice-President and in Israel will be meeting with the President and the Prime Minister of Israel. We wish her well on that visit. The Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government will answer questions in relation to Education and Social Inclusion.
