Thank you, Senator Cameron, for your question because it allows me to outline for the Senate once again—we've done this a couple of times and I'm happy to do it again—the record investment that our government is putting into hospital funding through the hospital agreements with states right throughout the Federation. Since I was last able to update the Senate, we've had a few newcomers on board. The Western Australian Labor government has seen the light, the ACT Labor government has seen the light, the Northern Territory Labor government has seen the light and we've seen South Australia—thanks to a change of government in South Australia—Tasmania and New South Wales sign up to our national agreements. This will see record funding delivered to each and every state and territory government, year on year, as far as the eye can see.
