I thank Senator Mason for his support and the support of the opposition. The Higher Education Support Amendment (University College London) Bill 2010 allows for retrospective commencement of the amendment to the Higher Education Act to ensure that any students wishing to seek FEE-HELP assistance for units of study that they undertake with University College London during semester 1 of 2010 will not be disadvantaged owing to a delay in the passage of the bill after commencement of semester 1 of the 2010 academic year. I commend the bill to the Senate.
Question agreed to.
Bill read a second time.
