Santo Santoro (Queensland, Liberal Party, Minister for Ageing) Share this | Hansard source

Last Tuesday, when asked that question, I informed the public, including senators opposite interested in this issue, that I would convene a meeting of the aged care ministerial council. Yesterday, on Sunday, through a media release that has been reported in today’s press, I announced that that would be on 14 March—that is, Tuesday week. I have not postponed any meeting. I announced that there will be a meeting and yesterday I announced the date. That meeting will go ahead. Subsequent to that meeting, I will inform the Senate of the outcomes of the committee’s deliberations.
