Anika Wells (Lilley, Australian Labor Party, Minister for Aged Care) Share this | Hansard source

I thank the deputy leader for her question and for some welcome and newfound interest in the future of aged care and in constructive reform in a sector that, as I just elaborated on for two minutes and 59 seconds, was neglected for nine long years under her watch—including, I would note, the deputy leader's time as Minister for Health herself. She failed to do anything substantive about aged-care reform.

I would also note that the thrust of the question she asked was on a reform that they, the coalition, brought in themselves in 2014 and left completely untended and neglected until the time when they were turfed out of government for their neglect of aged care.
