My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to the Prime Minister's decision to cut more than $50 billion from Australia's hospitals. Can the Prime Minister confirm that, in New South Wales, this is the equivalent of sacking one in five nurses, one in three doctors and closing thousands of hospital beds in public hospitals? Prime Minister, why should the people of New South Wales pay for the Prime Minister's broken promises and the failure of the Premier of New South Wales to stand up to his mate?
