The former minister for sport, Senator McKenzie, resigned as a result of the sports rorts scandal. This minister has ignored the interim report of the royal commission entitled Neglect, the warnings from the northern hemisphere, the warnings from experts and unions, the warnings of Dorothy Henderson Lodge in March and Newmarch House in April, and more than 457 aged-care residents have died from COVID-19. Minister, why haven't you resigned?
