My question is to the Prime Minister. Is the Prime Minister aware of comments made by the President of the Australian Dental Association, Dr John Matthews, that the Labor Party’s policy on dental care is now ‘patchy and piecemeal’? Is the Prime Minister aware of comments made by his Labor Party colleague the member for Dobell that he will be ‘fighting for dental under Medicare’ because ‘too many Australians are living in misery’? Does the Prime Minister really understand the impact on disadvantaged Australians of his decision to remove dental care from Medicare only last week?
