Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (15:03): 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. Senator Ruston interjecting— Senator McALLISTER: All of that information was before you. The PRESIDENT: Minister McAllister, please resume your seat. Senator Ruston, I've lost count of the times I've called you. I've also asked you to stop the running commentary. So, for the remaining 20 seconds, please be quiet. Minister McAllister, please continue. Senator McALLISTER: So, yes, we intend to continue to work—as we have done from the very first moment of coming to government—on building the aged-care system so that it is fit for purpose and so it can meet the needs of Australia's ageing population and make sure our people have the care that they deserve. Senator Wong: I ask that further questions be placed on notice.
