Senator for Queensland Mark Furner today urged Australians to have their say on future government funding arrangements for Australia’s schools, with the last day for submissions Thursday, 31 March 2011.

Senator Furner said the Review of Funding for Schooling panel released an Emerging Issues Paper in December 2010, summarising the views presented to the panel during its initial consultation with more than 70 school related stakeholders.
Submissions relating to the Emerging Issues Paper can be made online or in writing until Thursday 31 March 2011.
The Emerging Issues Paper and further information on the review, including information on how to make a submission, can be found at www.deewr.gov.au/fundingreview
