My question is to the Prime Minister. The Australian Medical Association and the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners have warned that the government's GP tax could threaten immunisation rates for children. Can the Prime Minister guarantee that childhood immunisation rates will not drop because the government's GP tax discourages parents from taking their kids to the doctor? Why should families suffer because of the Prime Minister's broken promises?
