I do not agree with the fairly old-fashioned tone of Mr Cornwell's comment about needing men for role models for single parent families. I am not convinced by that. I would want to see evidence, and I do not think evidence could be found to support the theory that we need men in our schools to fix some social problem. I do not think that is a factor. We need good teachers in our schools, and that is what we have. I am sure that those good teachers and the schools we have will continue to provide students here with a very good education system.

Question resolved in the affirmative.
