Petition text:
We, the undersigned, call on the Tasmanian State Government to
• Prioritise essential public services like health care by properly funding our ambulance services
• Expanding the role of Patient Transport Services for non-urgent trips, reducing the demand on our ambulances.
• Scrap the plans announced in the State budget for introducing a user-pays system that requires people to take out private health insurance, that charges high fees for an ambulance call-out, and that does not exempt low-income earners or pensioners.
