Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I assure the minister that I do not make personal judgements about her answers. I also refer again to modelling that has been available on increased debt. Why is the Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Women supporting higher fees and higher interest rates that could see a female nurse take more than 24 years to pay off a debt of almost $100,000? Also, has the minister spoken with the female students about these issues?
