My question is to the Prime Minister and refers to the confirmation that the government sale of Medibank has been put on hold. Will the Prime Minister finally confirm for the House, for Medibank’s more than three million members and for the 63 per cent of voters who oppose the sale, whether the government has cut and run until after the next election? If this is the case, why is the Prime Minister persisting with the introduction of the sale legislation in this session when Australians do not want him to?
