We need greater checks and balances. I ask the Minister to set up an internal investigation to report on how those errors occurred in the maths papers, in particular when we are encouraging more students to do maths.

Before I conclude I wish to refer as well to the fact that in the CSPE exam a question referring to the Referendum Commission mistakenly stated the commission presented arguments for and against. I cannot understand how anybody in charge of civics in this country would not be aware of the position. My daughter, who is brilliant, did the exam but she might have thought Referendum Commission was the name of a boy band. However, such mistakes should not be made.
