On 23 February, the Prime Minister announced our policy, the most significant investment in Medicare's history, an investment that will see nine out of 10 GP visits bulk-billed by 2030. The coalition, Mr Dutton and Senator Ruston stood up that day and said quite a few things. They didn't just say that they liked our policy; they liked it so much in fact that they wanted parliament to be recalled to pass it. Do you remember that, Senator Ruston? That wasn't actually everything that Senator Ruston had to say on that day. She also talked about Peter Dutton, a man who has a very strong and proud track record as the Leader of the Opposition but also as the health minister. This was the shadow minister's favourite health minister. What did she like most about Peter Dutton, one wonders? Was it attempting to introduce the GP tax? Was that the favourite thing, Senator Ruston? Was it ripping billions out of public hospitals? We stand by our commitments in the campaign, and the question is: do you stand by yours? (Time expired)
