Government approves major rises in tertiary student allowances
The Governor approved higher student allowance rates rising from 25 percent to AU per cent, aiming to reach about $20 million in 1977. Education Minister Senator Carrick outlined how the department will manage ten student assistance schemes, with emphasis on balancing costs between students, families, and the public purse. The measures affect ELAS related programs and several schemes across tertiary education and tuition support. A government tabulation notes the impact on dependents living away from home and income-related reductions, with revised rates outlined for future years.
