Clearly, Senator Marshall is so completely out of touch that he is unaware that state governments actually run public hospitals. I am a little surprised that you did not know that, Senator Marshall—but it is a bad day if you do not learn something new, I suppose, isn’t it? And you have learnt something new today. I think probably about 99.99 per cent of the rest of the population knew it. If you did not know it, well, you do now. And the bottom line with this is that you are going to put up to a million people back into the public health system. Have you allocated any funding for that?
