The National Party is always here defending the interests of our regional and rural constituents. Let us start with our commitment to supporting rural and regional GPs. Just the other day we announced payments under the General Practice Rural Incentives Program. If you are in a very remote or modified Monash 7 region, over five years you will get $60,000 extra. That is much more generous for those general practitioners who turn up in regional towns. That is even better than what we proposed.
