Sharon Bird (Cunningham, Australian Labor Party, Shadow Minister for Vocational Education) Share this | Hansard source

In the very short period I have, I will indicate that I have a significant amount to say, so I will certainly be seeking to extend my comments when the debate reconvenes at a future date. It is particularly important, I think, for the parliament to consider the amendment to this bill that has been moved by the shadow minister. I will seek the opportunity when I have more time to speak in the debate to go through a bit of the history of what has happened to the VET FEE-HELP scheme and to discuss some of the proposals that the government has put forward.
