JULIE COLLINS, MINISTER FOR HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS: It is great to be here at the Clarence TAFE campus and to have the Prime Minister with us. And I want to thank the Tas-TAFE staff and students for coming in and showing us some of the work that they're doing as they go into their nursing exams. We all know that nurses in our hospitals are critically needed. So, it was wonderful to hear today that some of the students will soon be taking up their practice in our hospitals in coming weeks.
