Thank you for that, Mr President. Again, there seems to be a move towards partisanship on this most important issue. We will not get dragged into that sorry mess. We're about fixing something. We're about doing something that the previous government never did. We will not be dragged into politicising the outcomes. We are working to fix this. We have made significant investments. As I've indicated, we'll be making an investment of an additional $5 billion over the next five years. We've increased investment by $5 billion over the past five years. A $10 billion increase in investment in care and safety of our most treasured Australians is a great record from this government.
