AMA Welcomes Coalition Health Team
AMA President, Dr Rosanna Capolingua, said today the AMA looks forward to getting acquainted with the new faces in the Coalition's health portfolio team.
Dr Capolingua said that Shadow Minister for Health and Ageing, Joe Hockey, Shadow Minister for Ageing, Margaret May, and Parliamentary Secretaries, Senator Richard Colbeck (Health) and Mark Coultan (Ageing and the Voluntary Sector), bring a mix of Ministerial experience and new blood to the portfolio.
"We look forward to working again with Joe Hockey who had early responsibility for the previous Government's Smartcard proposals, and to establishing working relationships with the others who have been promoted to the Opposition front bench," Dr Capolingua said.
