For you, Mr Speaker, we will hold back our enthusiasm tonight! My question is to the Prime Minister. Does the Prime Minister recall his words of 30 April this year when he said:

... the Government’s agenda for the public service is to ensure a robust, evidence-based policy making process. Policy design and policy evaluation should be driven by analysis of all the available options, and not by ideology.

Given the Prime Minister’s commitment to open government and evidence based policy, will he provide the House with all departmental modelling and advice on the impact of his government’s changes to the Medicare surcharge?
