My question is to the Minister for Aged Care. This morning, Dr Brendon Radford, Director of Policy and Research of National Seniors Australia, told ABC Radio:

… there were people who have died. We had another person who was waiting for a package, ended up in hospital, got released, had no support—three days later, they died.

When will the minister apologise to the families of the vulnerable elderly people who have died waiting for you to do your job?
