Senator ALSTON (Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts) (11:42 AM)
—I think I was asked, essentially, to concede improper motives. The answer is that we do not. I acknowledge that politics can be defined as the art of questioning people's motives—I myself have defined it on more than one occasion as a strict exchange of prejudices. I think that what Senator Stott Despoja ought to be aware of is that the Beazley regime was probably a much softer touch than the current lot and to appeal to Senator Carr's heart on this issue is fundamentally misplaced.
Question put:
That schedule 1, part 2, of the Higher Education Funding Amendment Bill 2002 stand as printed.
