Bill: Amended Education Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: People's Radical Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: May 2535
Description[?]:
| The purpose of this bill is the following: The liberalisation of the education sector by introducing private initiative at both school and higher education levels. The GPRP remains convinced that regulated private nursery-school establishments are similarly a good thing, however the broader community is apparently not so. The existence of a free, public system in parallel will prevent any students from falling through the cracks, while also allowing those with certain religious beliefs (for example) to educate their children as they see fit. On further consideration, the proposal regarding higher education tuition have also been modified to allow for the students to repay the costs incurred as they become financially able to do so. |
