Question

Senator RUSTON: I was thinking, if they actually got their rate cut, is that incentivising them to deal with the immunisation? Mr Flavel: We'd have to go and ask Services Australia in terms of particularly how quickly-I think where you're going is how quickly, if somebody drops off a higher rate to the base rate, do they then take action. I think I'd have to go and talk to Services Australia. I don't have any particular insights on that.
