Thank you, Mr President. My further supplementary question is also directed to Senator Ludwig. Given that Dr Chris Davis, of the Australian Medical Association in Queensland, has said that the Queensland system is too inflexible to allow efficient management of any more money thrown into it and too inflexible to handle the sheer number of patients, isn’t this just further proof that the Queensland state Labor government has failed in its duty of care to Queensland hospital patients? When will the federal Labor government act to ensure that the buck does stop with them?
