My question is to the Assistant Minister for Health, Senator Nash. I refer to the fact that, tragically, there are over 250 drowning deaths in Australia every year. Indeed, the 10-year average is 292 drowning deaths per year. Would the minister please update the Senate on the vital topic of water safety and the most recent findings on drowning deaths in Australia?
