I was very clearly answering the question in stating the fact that this government's focus is going to be ensuring the delivery of front-line services, which includes mental health. That means ensuring that those services are available right across the nation, particularly to those in rural and regional communities. So indeed I am answering the question, Mr President.
When we look at the health record of those opposite, it becomes a stark contrast as to which side of this chamber is properly going to deliver health services for the regions and indeed the nation as a whole.
