Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. I refer to the Minister for Education's statement that women will not be charged higher fees because 'they will not be able to earn the high incomes that dentists and lawyers will earn'. Doesn't NATSEM's research show that the women who undertake teaching and nursing degrees will be among the hardest hit, precisely because they do not earn high wages?
