Thank you, Mr President, and thanks, Senator, for the question. I don't have a full list with me of the sanctions against People Care over time, but I'm happy to provide that information to the Senate on notice. But I can confirm that on Saturday, 13 July further sanctions were applied against People Care as a result of the events of 11 July. There are limits to those particular sanctions. There is also further work that's being done by my department with respect to the approved provider status of the facility off the back of those events. Once the work has been completed, with respect to that work, there may be further requirements for People Care Pty Ltd with respect to its ongoing operations, but that work is not yet complete.
