Name changed from “Stopping funding of the National Schools Chaplaincy Program ” to “funding the national school chaplaincy program”.

Description changed from “The National Schools Chaplaincy Program (NSCP) is discriminatory - funding is available for religiously-affiliated persons only. It is also not needs-based - funding is made available to Catholic and independent schools that already employ chaplains. The $250 million paid from the Federal Govt to the States for the NSCP ought to be re-directed to fund secular welfare support officers in government schools of greatest need.” to “The federal government should continue to fund the National School Chaplaincy Program (NSCP) to fund chaplains in Australian primary and secondary schools”.
