My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the AMA President's comments today about the unfair GP tax, and I quote: 'It would be bad, particularly for vulnerable patients, and if you cannot win over the parliament or the population it is time to admit there is a problem with the policy instead of being petulant.' Why is the government so intent on introducing an unfair GP tax by any means to make vulnerable Australians pay just to see their doctor?
