28454 (2024). Ingrid Leary to the Minister for Seniors: Does the Minister agree with financial coach Shula Newland that "beneficiaries were often encouraged to study as a way to get off the benefit, but they could be left with a loan for a qualification in a field that did not pay well"; if not, why not?

Hon Casey Costello: Shula Newland’s statement could be accurate for anyone taking out a student loan.
