Courageous in terms of the amount of money that we put forward. We could spend a lot of money in a lot of places to keep on addressing Labor’s neglect from when they were in government, but what we are doing is securing the future and the welfare of ageing Australians. The commitment that I can make, not only to Senator McLucas but to the Senate, is that we will continue to work hard through both the development of sound policy and the proper funding to back it up, so that ageing Australians under a coalition government will be much better off than they were under Labor.
