The Minister has a very reductionist view of finding information. He asked parents and schools to tick a box as to whether they had a school book rental scheme. Anyone who ticked the box, regardless of whether it was only a seed book rental scheme or long established, is now excluded. The Minister is not taking need into account. He and his party constantly peddle the line that they are trying to address school book and uniform costs.
