CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for the Public Sector) (14:15):</by>  As I said, if students are undertaking a course this year, then there will be absolutely no change. WorkReady comes in on 1 July, but that is not relevant for the students who are studying this year; they get to complete their study this year. You have then subsequently asked about students who complete their certificate II but wish to go on to a certificate III. I am keeping an eye on where there might be a situation of a student who wishes, having undertaken certificate II in a course that is not on the free list, to go on to certificate III, and I am keeping an eye on that.</text>
