Of great concern to the government have been some of the quality problems in the vocational education and training sector. The reality is that we found a situation, especially as it applied to the operation of the VET FEE-HELP scheme, where the previous government had put in place a poorly structured scheme that really ensured taxpayer money was being wasted and students were accumulating unnecessary debt.
