My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. Today the aged-care royal commissioners, the Hon. Tony Pagone QC and Ms Lynelle Briggs AO, said: 'Had the Australian government acted upon previous reviews of aged care, the persistent problems in aged care would have been known much earlier and the suffering of many people could have been avoided.' How many of the 335 aged-care recipients who have died from COVID-19 would be alive if the minister had acted upon previous reviews?
