I take my position in this extremely seriously. Quite frankly, none of this that we're dealing with is about me. The thing that is in my focus is that 1.2 million Australians are receiving care, whether that be CHSP home care, veterans care or residential aged care, as part of the service delivery provided by aged-care providers around the country. They are my focus. This is not about me. I will continue to have and place my focus on all of those Australians who are receiving care—that is my responsibility—and I will continue to do that assiduously while ever I hold this role.
