My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. When 16,000 older Australians died in one year waiting to receive the home care package for which they had already been approved, can the minister explain why the Prime Minister today announced only 10,000 new home care places when more than 120,000 older Australians are currently waiting?
