SenateWednesday 3 September 2025

Aged Care and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2025, Aged Care (Accommodation Payment Security) Levy Amendment Bill 2025

Senator McALLISTER (New South Wales—Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme) (11:20): Senator Allman-Payne, I've really clearly explained the approach that the government has taken to this. We want the Senate to have good-quality information. That's been assured; that's the approach we have taken.

Senator Ruston has in her possession information that has not been subject to that process and may be subject to change as a consequence. She asked me about it directly; I confirmed it. But our preference is to work with data that has been quality assured, and that's the approach that we've taken through this debate up to this point.
