All we heard about the situation was that they were going to commission a report, and then they commissioned Mr Gonski to provide a report. He came up with a recommendation to invest $6 billion. The government of the day was in such dire straits that that was clearly out of the equation, so they cherry-picked that report to reduce it to what we have today. I stress this: I urge those on the other side to look at the real ways in which we can raise standards.
