My question is again to the Minister for Health and Ageing. I refer to comments of the Tasmanian Australian Medical Association president, Professor Haydn Walters, in the Australian about the Commonwealth’s takeover of the Mersey hospital:

If neither hospital can get the critical mass in terms of manpower and equipment needed to operate a really good hospital of excellence, then both hospitals will fail.

Minister, given this new Crosby Textor research, which indicates that you are much less popular than the local pharmacist, the family doctor, the Australian Medical Association, the health system in general, pharmaceutical companies, even the federal government, why should anyone believe you?
