Scheme and Contract Operation, Termination of Medical Students
There is a contract between the government and medical students. How a person enters the contract, as a student or applicant to Medicine and if it is voluntarily is very unclear.
Contract breach is the mechanism of formal contract between a person and the Commonwealth that triggers loss of a provider number and repayments. However the scheme consists of arrangements between the Government and Universities on how to get the contracts signed and terminate students who do not breach the contracts. The current (2011) Contract gives a one year period within which the contract will not be breached if finalised.
However the Contract and supporting material claims a students place is some how 'linked' or 'funded' under the contract/scheme while at the same time each student is required to be eligible of HECS/CSP. There has been no change to HECS/CSP legislation to reflect this 'link' assertion. Rather HECS/CSP legislation requires all students to be treated equally. The Department of Health and Ageing rather asks Universites to terminate Students, and pays amounts of money to Universities on the basis they follow this request.

“Television programming for children need not be saccharine or insipid in order to give to violence its proper balance in the scheme of things.... But as an endless diet for the sake of excitement and sensation in stories whose plots are vehicles for killing and torture and little more, it is not healthy for young children. Unfamiliar as yet with the full story of human response, they are being misled when they are offered perversion before they have fully learned what is sound.”
—Dorothy H. Cohen (20th century)

This fight for our own independence will lead to the growth and development of the revolutionary movement in this country. Only the independent woman can be truly effective in the larger revolutionary struggle.”
