2749. Hon Alison Xamon to the Minister for Energy representing the Minister for Education


I refer to the budget papers page 357 second dot point regarding National Partnership agreements, and ask —


(1) Will there be any expansion of the number of schools receiving assistance through National Partnership agreements?


Hon PETER COLLIER replied:


(1) There is no indication by the Australian Government that it intends to include additional funding for schools in the Low Socio-Economic Status (SES) school communities National Partnership Agreement between 2010 and 2015; or through the Literacy and Numeracy National Partnership Agreement between 2010 and 2011.
