I quote from the previous Prime Minister:

Is anyone seriously suggesting that, in the circumstance you're talking about, where there is the possibility of breast cancer, that is going to stop them going to the doctor? I mean, that is emotionalism being played at the lowest level.

That is what we have seen from those opposite. This government has been very clear. The best thing we can do for this nation is ensure a sustainable health system into the future. That is what we are going to do, because it is this government that recognises the responsible decisions have to be made to ensure that sustainable health system.
