My question is to the Prime Minister. Epping Gardens in my electorate is the site of Australia's worst aged-care coronavirus outbreak. More than 20 residents have died. At the height of the outbreak, just six rostered staff were available to care for 115 residents, many of them already ill with COVID. Why didn't the Prime Minister have a plan to stop tragedies like this?
