My question is to the Prime Minister. This morning the Minister

for Health said he would put a stop to the proposal from the government's secret Medicare task force before the 24 March COAG meeting. Why did the government's secret Medicare task force meet on 28 March, and its proposal was again discussed just two weeks ago? And why did the deputy secretary of the health department today confirm that the government will continue to engage with the secret Medicare task force? If the task force has been stopped, how come it is still going?
