The senator asks about support for older people who need care at home. We are committed to delivering support, and indeed on 1 November a new program will be introduced—one that was navigated through this parliament with the support of those opposite, and we acknowledge that. It is part of a broader strategy by our government to increase the care available and the quality of care available to older Australians. We owe them that, and we are determined to do so.
