What we wanted was an industry-wide inspection of the aged-care sector so that they could then come back to us and make recommendations to us on how the aged-care sector should look in the future. If Senator Keneally had read the report, she would've seen in the report that it calls for action in three areas—which we've said we will take—but it also says it doesn't want to be working on a moving target. It cautions about what actions we take in what areas as part of our processes moving forward. But we have already taken significant actions.
