My question is to the Minister for Health and Aged Care. Eating disorders among young people have skyrocketed during COVID, with clinics seeing demand increase by up to 85 per cent. Minister, mothers in Goldstein are pleading with me to do something before their children literally die of starvation due to lack of available care. I ask you: when will the government step in to help the states provide cohesive, one-stop mental and physical care for these children and young adults?
