It is a delight to take a question from the opposition. It does not have one single health policy. I thought health was important to the Labor Party, but it does not have one single health policy.
The Leader of the Opposition is skipping around the country visiting the laboratories of a listed multinational company, whose profit has increased 500 per cent since 2000, while also claiming to protect the vulnerable. My question back to the Leader of the Opposition, and back to the shadow minister for health, is: can they reassure the patients of Australia that the Medicare rebate for every single pathology item remains unchanged, and, indeed, under review with the MBS task force?
