I move:

That the Senate—
(a)
notes:
(i)
the recent report on student finances by the Australian Vice-Chancellors’ Committee (AVCC), Australian University Student Finances 2006, and
(ii)
that the Government has yet to respond to the Employment, Workplace Relations and Education References Committee report, Student income support, tabled on 23 June 2005; and
(b)
urges the Government to respond to both the committee report and the recommendations for alleviating student financial stress put forward by the AVCC on 15 March 2007.

Question put.
