Madam Speaker, I seek leave to make a personal explanation.
Mrs Bronwyn Bishop Speaker
Does she believe she has been misrepresented?

I do, Madam Speaker. During question time the Prime Minister claimed that public hospital funding was cut during my time as health minister. In fact, the 2013-14 hospital budget was $14.9 billion, an $871 million increase on the 2012-13 budget and a $5 billion increase on 2007.
