My question is to the Assistant Minister for Health, Senator Nash. I refer the minister to her statement to the Senate last week: 'The government has not considered the introduction of a co-payment for Medicare services.' I also refer her to Friday's Financial Review,which reports that the health minister is considering co-payments for GPs. I ask again, Minister: is the government considering co-payments for Medicare services?
