Round 2 of the computer fund has recently closed and a total of 1,420 schools across Australia have applied. That is 793 government schools and 342 independent schools.

Senator Mason, I think the question highlights that this is a government that is providing substantial resources for computers in schools. We have a situation where, after 12 years of funding neglect by the previous government, the Rudd government are actually committed to ensuring that our schools are world-class. That is why we are providing such a massive investment in education in this country.
