Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (14:47): Health spending goes up every year. And, just in case the member opposite is tempted to claim that there have been cuts to public hospitals, public hospital spending goes up nine per cent this year, nine per cent the year after, nine per cent the year after that and six per cent in the fourth year. And school funding goes up eight per cent this year, eight per cent next year, eight per cent the year after that and six per cent in the final year. There have been no cuts to health spending; health spending goes up every year. Dr Chalmers interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Rankin is warned. Mr ABBOTT: Sure, there are some individual programs that have been adjusted, but our commitment not to cut health spending has been absolutely and utterly delivered upon.
