The linked article does go on to discuss somewhat dubious practices. It suggests that the students are unlikely to benefit from any education and that the private college are just scamming tax dollars out of the aussie gubernmentalists. Yay, free enterprise!

There are presumably issues with the funding mechanisms, but that doesn’t mean abusing them is beyond criticism.
