I thank the shadow minister for her question, because it enables me to tell the House how we are not only providing record funding for public schools, record funding for Catholic schools and record funding for independent schools but also focusing on turning that record funding into better outcomes and better results. For too long, especially from those opposite, all we have heard about is funding, funding, funding and funding. And that comes from a party who, when in government, had 27 different funding arrangements in place. We now have needs based funding in place and we are focusing on getting better results and better outcomes. That is why next week's COAG meeting is so important.
