I seek leave to amend general business notice of motion No. 470, standing in my name for today, relating to Medicare.

Leave granted.

I, and also on behalf of Senator Lazarus, move the motion as amended:

That the Senate—

(a) expresses concern at the proposed sale of the $29 billion Medicare payment system, which will put thousands of jobs at risk and compromise service;

(b) notes that the sale will open the door for further privatisations within the Department of Human Services and other federal government agencies, including the Australian Taxation Office; and

(c) calls on the Australian Government to:

(i) protect Australian jobs and ensure that all jobs remain in Australia, as is currently the case, and

(ii) reject the privatisation of Medicare's key administrative functions.
