Despite this minister claiming that he's responded 'incredibly well', that we're 'extremely fortunate' and that the government's response is 'a high-water mark', this minister has failed to give one example of action—not discussion, not talking but action—he's taken in response to warning after warning after warning. Don't the 200,000 Australians in aged care deserve a minister who will get it right and take real action instead of endless talkfests and self-congratulation?
