Thank you again for the question. I can only restate our intention, which is this: we want more Australians to see a doctor for free. That is the promise of universal health care. That is the promise that Australians voted for when they voted for our government, and it is on that basis that we are making the largest single investment in Medicare since the inception of that program—and it is all to repair the damage that was done by the government that you supported and that many of you were part of.
