Adding to the Prime Minister's answer to the question the Leader of the Opposition asked about actions: there are four principal actions we have taken over recent years to significantly and dramatically improve the quality. We recognise the statements made by the commission, which did, I would note, refer to actions over decades, not just over one short period, specifically: firstly, a massive injection of funding from $13 billion to $22 billion, $23 billion, $24 billion and $25 billion and then the additional $1.5 billion for COVID the Prime Minister mentioned; secondly, the calling of the royal commission and the extension of it; thirdly, the creation of the quality indicator program; fourthly, the creation of the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission, which so far this year has conducted 1,180 visits to different aged-care facilities to help protect, to help save and to help improve quality.
