My question is to the Prime Minister. On 3 June in this parliament, the Prime Minister said:

The GP co-payment is a sensible measure from this government to try to make Medicare sustainable for the long term.

…healthcare spending is certainly not out of control and there is absolutely no need for them to introduce a GP co-payment…

Now that the president of the AMA has put the Prime Minister's fabrication to bed, will the Prime Minister now abandoned his GP tax?
