I again thank Senator Cummins for the strong and robust case he has put forward for St. Paul's Community College. I will bring the case in regard to the community college in the context of the overall long-term plan to the attention of the Minister for Education. I agree that it is important staff of the Department of Education liaise with the patron and the community to find the best possible solution for the school. We appreciate all of the school's efforts in terms of increased enrolments. I have no doubt it is providing a significant service to the community. I again acknowledge Senator Cummins's role in progressing this case. I will do my best to bring the case to the Minister for Education.
