The Prime Minister's assertion is patently false. In fact, I said:

I can make the guarantee that no school will be worse off under a Coalition government—

because our policy is the current quantum of funds plus six per cent indexation for non-government schools and government schools. Further, I said, 'Yesterday the Prime Minister tried to convince people of a base lie, and the Leader of the Opposition and I took exception to it.' Further, I said, 'The coalition is the only political party with the policy of putting more funds into both public and non-government schools to a six per cent indexation—' (Time expired)
