In the latest Senate Education Employment Legislation Committee report, the committee has recommended that the controversial student cap on international student enrolments be instated.
However the original proviso that course-level quotas should be applied was not endorsed – for all Table A and Table B institutions and TAFEs.
The committee recommended “that the bill be amended to remove the ability for the Minister to set course-level limits for Table A and B universities and
TAFE providers”.
So the question is, which institutions are in the list?
It appears to be all universities, public and private, and TAFEs which are government funded Technical and Further Education colleges.
This means that course-level caps will still be applied to private colleges.
