My question is to the Prime Minister. A few moments ago, the Prime Minister referred to the targeting of old people. Yesterday in question time, the Prime Minister was unaware that this government had threatened to sue a Sydney grandfather for his use of the Medicare logo, and today the Minister for Human Services said that he was not aware of his department's threats to sue. Is the Prime Minister aware of whether the government has also threatened to sue the Liberal Party, the Minister for Trade, the member for Forde, the member for Bonner and the Minister for Health for their use of the Medicare logo, or are these actions limited to a Sydney grandfather?
