Once again, we see the Liberal Party over there trying to hide their true intention, which is to strip back the right of working Australians to access a free health system. Nevertheless, this is a taxation arrangement that I strongly support. I have highlighted, significantly, the impact that this will have in my electorate. It will have a very positive impact in my electorate. I know that people on this side of the House very much look forward to the significant savings for working families and to the opportunity for real, genuine choice—a principle that we on this side of the House strongly support. I am very pleased to be able to articulate to the House my views on this issue.
