My question is to the Assistant Minister for Health, Senator Nash. I refer to the government's proposed GP tax and comments from the president of the Rural Doctors Association of Australia, Dr Ian Kamerman, who said:

The proposed Medicare co-payment model is going to hit rural patients hard and will cause significant problems to country medical practices and their communities.

Isn't the Rural Doctors Association right?
