While statistics released by the government show that half of Tasmania's residential aged-care facilities are not meeting their care minute targets, the Office of Impact Analysis hasn't looked at the regulatory impact statement requirements between 2021 to 2023, which makes me think there's been no quality analysis of the regulation change to aged-care minutes. Another certificate has already been issued to support the government's planned increase. If we know the system isn't working now due to workforce issues, where are the extra staff coming from to support these extra 15 minutes?
