Thank you, Minister. I know I've heard from so many young people in my community about the difference that this will make. Not only is the government backing the future health workforce; it's also making sure that we value the workers caring for older Australians right now. This month saw the fifth increase to award wages for nurses providing aged-care services. Minister, how is the Albanese Labor government backing aged-care workers to earn more and keep more of what they earn?
