In answer to Senator Ruston's question, the point I seek to make is that it is a good thing if the government and the opposition can work together on significant reform. It's important because these are challenging reforms that matter to older Australians. It's important because implementing them well means providing certainty to providers and the workforce and means significant change that will endure over time. That is why we sought to work with the opposition on the original legislation and also on the legislation that is before the Senate at the moment.
