QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator DOWLING (Tasmania) (14:27): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Ageing and Minister for Disability and the National Disability Insurance Scheme, Senator McAllister. In its first term, the Albanese Labor government delivered 87 Medicare urgent care clinics to make it easier for Australians to get urgent treatment they need completely free of charge.

Minister, how is the government delivering Medicare urgent care clinics across Australia, and how are they helping Australians to access the health care that they need?
