I am glad I have you interested now because it is the first time you have been, Senator Polley. The minister did a backflip on 5,000 of those 30,000 students—only 5,000 of them. There are still the other students who entered into the gap year and now we are seeing the other criteria being taken away. It is simply wrong and the bill should not go ahead.
