I probably should have used the term 'incentive', if that's what you're referencing, but thank you for picking me up on that. I'm very grateful.

We tripled the bulk-billing incentive and then we extended the tripling of the bulk-billing incentive to more Australians, because we are the party that actually wants to ensure that Medicare is strengthened for Australians. If you have an issue with that, Senator Ruston, that is unfortunate.
