House debates Questions without Notice
Aged Care

My question is to the Minister for Senior Australians and Aged Care. Is the minister aware of a report that, while visiting a nursing home in May, he conceded the government's $1.2 billion cuts to aged care were hurting, saying, and I quote, 'These things are controlled by Treasury.' Can the minister confirm that he now blames the Prime Minister, the then Treasurer, for the $1.2 billion cut to aged care? Is this why the Prime Minister described his own government as a muppet show?
