Senator FIERRAVANTI-WELLS (New South Wales) (14:43): Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer the minister to the fact that that under the Rudd-Gillard government there have been no less than 20 inquiries and reviews, including three by the Productivity Commission—each review having its own consultation process and all detailing the need for urgent aged-care reform. Given that the National Aged Care Alliance launched its blueprint and the sector is in crisis, how can this government justify further delay?
