Order of Business (Resumed)

Will the Leader consider asking the Minister for Education and Science to come to the House to debate the report relating to the training of primary schoolteachers? Many serious and unfounded allegations have been made. For example, Senator O'Toole insinuated or stated — I am not sure which because I could not hear him very well — that the survey of 140 students was very selective. I stand corrected if that is not the way in which the Senator presented the facts. There appears to be a suggestion that the report was published for mischievous reasons or reasons not related to education. I do not agree with this suggestion.
