Q&A

UNIS – US MODEL & AUDIT – Tom Harman has asked: I’m from Socialist Alternative and the Education Action Group of Macquarie, Mr Pyne, you have favourably spoken of the deregulation of universities along US-lines in terms of setting the sector free. As a student this proposal worries me. Student debt in the USA totals over $1 Trillion and the President has described this as an “economic crisis”. On top of deregulation, the recent Commission of Audit recommended fee increases and suggested that students should start to repay their debt once they start earning minimum wage. What is your position on this, and wouldn’t you agree that emulating the American model, far from freeing students, would limit access to education for the poor and disadvantaged? What do you think?
