QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Ms SPENDER (Wentworth) (15:04): My question is to the Minister for Aged Care and Seniors. Last night, on Four Corners, Professor Kathy Eagar described the algorithm which determines home-care packages as fundamentally flawed and argued that the government should ditch it and start over. People regularly approach me with concerns about access to home care, and now people are concerned that the assessment tool is just wrong.

Will the government establish a mandatory automated-decision-making framework, including human oversight, as recommended by the robodebt royal commission, to improve public confidence and trust?
