Well, it is my understanding that the government should have been aware since May that there was an impending shortage of IV fluid in Australia. Can the minister outline what actual actions the government has taken and what actions were taken at the time it became aware of the IV fluid shortage to guarantee supply of these essential fluids to ensure Australia's healthcare system remained functional?
