Thank you for that comprehensive answer, Senator McAllister. Australians do not only get sick from nine to five. When an Australian gets ill or has a fall out of hours, when a regular GP is closed, a trip to the ED can feel like it's their only option. How is the Albanese Labor government delivering support to ensure that Australians are not left without care simply because of the time of the day?
