Thank you. For the advice of the honourable Member, there were fines for compulsory attendance before. The problem is that I guess it was never, what you might say, pursued to the extent necessary.

I just want to go back, Mr. Chairman, because there are two different views that are being expressed here. One is that on a number of occasions we have been told that students should be forced to attend school, so we are now in the process of making sure that we do register so that we have an indication as to whether or not we should be enforcing the whole matter of compulsory education.

Now, having said that, Mr. Chairman, we are offering a number of other options available to parents which were never part of the program; such as home schooling, that could be a part of the program, or, for that matter, private school. Even though we had, I believe, private schools before, there was never a clear indication that that is the direction we wanted to go. But that option is now available to students.

So we have a bit of a dilemma in that either we register children so we can enforce compulsory education or we do not register them and not have compulsory education, because you can't enforce compulsory education without forcing people to register students. So that is a bit of a dilemma that the honourable Member is raising.
