Thank you, Mr President. Given that the minister clearly doesn't understand the difference between residential and in-home aged care and has dismissed the 100,000 older Australians waiting to access in-home aged-care packages, is it any wonder that the Turnbull government has demonstrably failed to address its blowout in the waiting list and the inhumane standards older Australians are suffering under in residential aged-care facilities?
