My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. I refer the Acting Prime Minister to a press release issued by the Minister for Health and Ageing in January this year announcing $43.3 million to cut hospital waiting lists in New South Wales. I refer also to figures from the New South Wales Department of Health which show that the average waiting time at hospitals has increased between April and June this year from 3.67 months to 4.15 months in Wagga and from 2.97 months to 3.39 months in Tweed Heads. Acting Prime Minister, does the buck still stop with your government on health?
