Senator COLBECK (Tasmania—Minister for Aged Care and Senior Australians and Minister for Youth and Sport) (14:18): The government is continuing to deliver record investment in the aged-care sector across the forward estimates—from $13.3 billion in 2012-13 under Labor to $21.7 billion in 2019-20 to an estimated $25.4 billion in 2022-23. That's, on average, $1 billion of extra support for older Australians each year. Senator Watt: Don't leave out the cuts! The PRESIDENT: Order, Senator Watt! Senator COLBECK: Not even the ABC believes you, Senator Watt. Under Labor, home-care packages sat at about 60,000 per annum. This year, 2018-19, they were at 125,000 and by 2022-23 they will be at 157,608. (Time expired)
