My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. The devastating interim report of the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety has confirmed the shameful neglect of older Australians. Today we see analysis that about 50,000 older Australians across the country are at risk as a result of an unacceptably high risk of insolvency of at least 200 residential aged-care providers. Will the minister take responsibility for fixing Australia's broken aged-care system?
