When was that announced? It certainly has not been announced publicly as far as I am aware. Can the minister confirm that the director of Varsity is also a director of McKenzie Aged Care, which operates an aged-care facility in Victoria, which received government sanctions in 2003 for causing ‘immediate and severe risk to the health, safety or wellbeing of residents’? How did the government ensure that Varsity Aged Care had a very good record of conduct as a provider of aged care as required by the aged care principles?
