Ms Macklin asked the Minister for Education, Science and Training, in writing, on 11 October 2006:

How many higher education providers (HEPs) have failed to meet the ongoing quality and accountability requirements set out in division 19 of the Higher Education Support Act 2003.


Ms Julie Bishop (Minister for Education, Science and Training and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Women’s Issues) —The answer to the honourable member’s question is as follows:

As at 31 October 2006, the Department of Education, Science and Training had written to and was awaiting a response from three higher education providers on the action they propose to take to resolve a matter of non-compliance or apparent non-compliance with some aspect of the quality and accountability requirements. Other issues of non-compliance, including late or incomplete return of information required under the legislation, are raised with providers from time to time.
