Senator DI NATALE (Victoria) (12:27): I seek leave to amend general business notice of motion No. 470, standing in my name for today, relating to Medicare. Leave granted. Senator DI NATALE: I, and also on behalf of Senator Lazarus, move the motion as amended: That the Senate— (a) expresses concern at the proposed sale of the $29 billion Medicare payment system, which will put thousands of jobs at risk and compromise service; (b) notes that the sale will open the door for further privatisations within the Department of Human Services and other federal government agencies, including the Australian Taxation Office; and (c) calls on the Australian Government to: (i) protect Australian jobs and ensure that all jobs remain in Australia, as is currently the case, and (ii) reject the privatisation of Medicare's key administrative functions.
