That is encouraging to hear. I would welcome that and be supportive of it.

In his opening remarks, Mr. Brownlee stated, "We must build a more powerful identity, developing consolidated larger scale FET colleges of the future which can help change the hearts and minds of the communities they serve." I ask him to elaborate on that. I suppose he was speaking about rationalising existing colleges and possibly regionalising them. What is envisaged in that regard?
