I thank the parliamentary secretary for her answer. I have some further follow-up questions on this. We will wait and see what happens with the assumptions of the modelling and the studies, but ultimately will the department undertake any monitoring to determine whether usage patterns and dropout rates are being affected? How will that monitoring take place? Is it something that already takes place? I think we will find out pretty quickly. It could be that my concerns are not justified or maybe they are—we will wait and see—but how will we be able to determine the impact of these changes? Will that information be publicly available and subject to robust public inquiry and scrutiny?
