what the hell is the $3 million spent on????????

Well... $3,000,000 for 5,000 students is $600 per student per year... somewhere around about $15 per week.

I'd say that's what it is being spent on. What about you?

The way you implemented those figures shows us why the Greens should NEVER be allow to control their own breathing let alone the Australian Budget

The question remains why the 21% in NT and 12% in QLD were not punished?

it isnt necessarily the SAME kids. the average non-attendance applies to the entire school body. the proper figure is the number of studens absent above a certain level defined as being 'actively truant'. as usual, govt statistics collect all the information in the world and analyse it all wrong.

Hopeless.

But then again this is a govt that LITERALLY cannot organise a succesful riot.

true longie

of the 5,000 picked out - only 92 had their payment stopped ie only 1.8%

but this only increased participation rate in the NT from 75% to 79% and in QLD 84% to 88%

even if we took the conservative approach and use the 21% and 12% as a range - truancy is about 1,050 to 600

this seems a long way from the 92 they actually punished

Bill 14% is not the alcohol content of that wine. It's your poll number

It doesn't take much to figure out why the corrupt political class want control over every aspect of our lives. But the reality is that these people serve us - we do not live to serve them and these liars have no right to abuse the power of the state; to violate the sovereignty and free will of the people. They have no right. We need action on corruption, that is something worth doing.
