I address my question to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his election promise of August 2007:

A Rudd Labor Government will seek to take financial control of Australia’s 750 public hospitals if State and Territory Governments have not begun implementing an agreed National Health Reform Plan by mid-2009.

Will the Prime Minister now admit that the government does not intend to honour its election commitment and that all Australians will pay the price for the government’s failure in public health?
