My question is for the Minister for Health and Ageing. Isn’t it the case that hundreds of graduate nurses have been turned away from public hospitals over the last two months because of the government’s Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency’s failure to register them on time? What are you going to do to address this chronic incompetence and failure to deliver even the most basic of services?
