Senator KEMP (Minister for the Arts and Sport) (5:12 PM) —They were based on the analysis by the department of total Commonwealth funding for schools. You would have to say that 2.7 per cent is a rather poor performance by the states. Are they Labor states? They are Labor states in receipt of the GST, which they love. As I said, in the last federal budget, government funding for schools was increased by 5.6 per cent, compared with an average increase on the part of the states of 2.7 per cent.
