My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Ageing, Senator McAllister. The Albanese Labor government believes in a simple principle. We believe that, no matter where you live or where you come from, Australians should have access to affordable health care. I, like all my colleagues, want Australians to see a doctor without a hit to their hip pocket. How is the government strengthening Medicare to help Australians get the care they need for free?
