Mr Speaker, the relevance is here: this government has a commitment to providing eligible families with support of over $4,000 to help with the costs of keeping kids at school between the ages of 16 and 19 if they are studying. The Leader of the Opposition says that sounds like some kind of occupational program of the government's. But helping all those kids is what this government is all about. (Time expired)
