I thank the member for Wentworth for his question. It is absolutely no wonder that the opposition has moved off questioning about schools. But to the member for Wentworth's question on broadband: let me assure him that what the Australian people know from this government is that we will ensure that fibre gets to the premises—that is, we will do it once and do it right for Australia's future. Not for us the member for Wentworth's 'fraudband' policy, which of course would cost a lot of money and deliver very slow access, relying as it does on the copper network, which is decades and decades and decades old.
