trained profes sionals But if we are lo provide the teachers and the schools needed to close the gap and to ensure no qualified person is debarred from university we must allocate more of our

capital construction should be replenished Finally the Senator suggests the PI per capita grant to universities could have been I doubled in the last at less cost and with more benefit to the economy than the cents a month reduction in personal income tax which the Finance I Minister granted to the small taxpayers My contention says Senator Mc- Cutcheon is that education cant wait And let us not
