My question is to the Minister for Education. It was reported today that the Australian Tertiary Education Commission won't advise on the reasonable costs of degrees until mid-2027 at the earliest, which means that the Job-Ready Graduates scheme will continue at least until 2028. Next year, 285,000 students will pay more than $54,000 for arts, law and commerce degrees, and $90,000 for double degrees. How can you justify this when you've acknowledged on many occasions that the Job-Ready Graduates scheme isn't working?
