My question is for the Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians, Senator Colbeck. One of the three aged-care facilities in Whyalla operated by Kindred Living, the Annie Lockwood Court hostel, will close. The announcement came at short notice and the facility will close on 27 August. That is 16 days away. That will leave, as I understand it, at least 20 residents either living outside of Whyalla or stranded. Can the minister provide the chamber with an understanding of what the situation is with the Annie Lockwood Court hostel?
