My question is to the Prime Minister. This month the aged care royal commission heard that after the deadly Newmarch House outbreak the Commonwealth still doesn't have protocols with all states, stating: 'It's unacceptable that such arrangements were not in place in February. It is unforgivable that they are still not in place in August.' After hundreds of deaths, why are Commonwealth funded and regulated aged-care facilities still unprepared for an outbreak of COVID-19?
