My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Ageing, Senator Ludwig. Is the minister aware that the Rudd Labor government’s decision to target more than 100,000 senior Australians in need of timely and affordable access to cataract surgery in the private health system will mean that they will face more than $600 in increased out-of-pocket expenses every year for every procedure?
