My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. Given the multiple warnings, including the interim report of the royal commission entitled 'Neglect', warnings from the Northern Hemisphere, warnings from experts and unions and the warnings presented by Dorothy Henderson Lodge in March and Newmarch House in April, how could Mr Morrison possibly claim on 29 July that the risks to aged care couldn't be 'anticipated or foreshadowed'?
