Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:26): Thank you to Senator Smith, who, like all Labor people, understands that making health care affordable— Senator Canavan interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senator Canavan! Senator WONG: is central to cost-of-living relief, and of course making health care affordable is in Labor's DNA. So we are delivering cost-of-living relief for Australians who are doing it tough: tax cuts, getting wages moving, $300 in energy bill relief for every household. We are working to ensure that all Australians have access to affordable, quality health care; reducing the price of PBS medicines; adding hundreds of medicines to that list; introducing 60-day prescriptions, to help save patients time and money. But of course we know, on the other side, what their attitude is, and that is demonstrated by Mr Dutton's record and by their record. When they were voted out of office, bulk-billing was falling off a cliff, and the rot began when Mr Dutton was health minister. He tried to do away with bulk-billing by introducing a fee on every single visit to the GP, and then he started a six-year freeze on Medicare rebates. Well, our government, the Albanese government, has made the largest investment in bulk-billing in Medicare in 40 years, tripling the bulk-billing incentive from 1 November. Senator Canavan interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Canavan! Opposition senators interjecting— Senator WONG: I can see the interjections. They really hate Medicare, don't they! They really hate a government that invests in Medicare. They really hate the fact that we have millions more Australians seeing a doctor, bulk-billed: three million free visits more, to the doctor—increasing in your state of South Australia by 4.6 per cent. This is because we care about bulk-billing and we care about Medicare, unlike those opposite. The PRESIDENT: Thank you, Minister. Senator Smith, first supplementary?
