As I indicated in my answer to Senator Ruston's primary question, a great deal needs to be done in the aged-care system because of the neglect that characterised your approach to this policy area during your very long period in government. It was the finding of the royal commission, and we moved very swiftly, on coming to government, to start to address it. It's meant bringing in new legislation, it's meant providing new resourcing and it's meant working carefully to ensure that the workforce is available to support people and to deal with the ageing population. All of those demographic signs were there when you were in government, Senator Ruston.

All of that information was before you.
