Australia’s universities are pleased the Government has heard the sector by making changes to the Higher Education Support Amendment (Job-Ready Graduates and Supporting Regional and Remote Students) Bill 2020.
Universities Australia Chair Professor Deborah Terry said: “The revised Bill includes legislative protection for funding of student-places. This is important because it gives some certainty about funding levels in a challenging environment.”
“We appreciate also that the Transition Fund, which gives universities three years to adjust to the changes, has also been enshrined in the legislation.”
