SenateTuesday 23 June 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator ANANDA-RAJAH (Victoria) (14:57): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health and Ageing, Senator McAllister. Helping Australians get the health care they need when they need it is one of the Albanese Labor government's top priorities. We know how much of a difference a stronger Medicare makes to the lives of everyday Australians.

How has the government delivered on its commitment to provide Australians with affordable and accessible urgent care? Senator Scarr: Tell us about the algorithm. The PRESIDENT: Once again, I haven't even called the minister and the interjections have started.

I'm serious; if you can't be quiet, leave the chamber. Minister McAllister.
