A win for regional, rural and remote university students

This article from the Australian Law Students Association discusses the changes to youth allowance. The income threshold for parents of students is being raised but only marginally higher than the minimun wage. It demonstrates that while the government are trying to prove they are taking action on youth allowance requirements they are not achieving this. Many students will still miss out on receiving youth allowance, either encouraging them to defer studies, or discourage them from ever studying at all.
