Had the misfortune of having to visit the local public hospital emergency dept because my daughter had a sudden onset ear infection on a Saturday evening. Not one private clinic open in Melbourne (checked with Nurse On Call). Arrived 6.30 pm Saturday and left 5.30 am Sunday. Doctor on call wrote a letter to the Eye and Ear Hospital, blood tests and told her to take Panadol. Monday morning saw our GP who prescribed antibiotics. Triage sister recognised an ear infection but the doctor couldn't.

Is it just me or do all the Rudd government's bright ideas seem to have a sting in their tail like this one. I can see in a few years the government giving unqualified people like nurses the power to do everything a doctor can without the appropriate training. Disaster waiting to happen.
What next? Brickies being allowed to fill in for engineers?
A bit annoying how the interviewer didn't know what a "specialist" was.

No, it's not just you. Labor makes stupid decisions because they don't think thru all the ramifications, and they lack talent and ability for forward planning. Labor govts are constantly employing 'bandaid' measures because they can't do much better. And those Sky News reporters have distinct Labor bias, or more correctly I suspect, are directed that way.

@kevvys1a1woos and i guess that superannuation, put in place by the Keating government, was also a "stupid" idea. Similar to the imposition of enterprise bargaining, microeconomic reforms that increased manufacturing jobs and the floating of the Australian dollar. Conservatives love to re-write history to suit their own dumbass ideology.

@1dschamp Superannuation was around long before Keating was.
