The Aged Care minister goes to the cricket, the NDIS is a complicated octopus and Scott Morrison gets the respect he deserves.   Weather talk Ever year, we see more and more once-in-a-century days for it. Aged careless Aged Care Minister Richard Colbeck went to the cricket instead of fronting a committee hearing on his policies. Last year, Colbeck didn’t know the number of people who had died under his department’s care. Health care minister Stewart Robert doesn’t seem to care that aged care residents are going without food and water. Minister for the NDIS Linda Reynolds says participants will be allowed to use their funds to purchase RATs. A system of vouchers So… it’s basically use your own money to buy RATs. Carolyn Campbell-Mclean spent $1300 on RATs and couldn’t get them reimbursed. Meanwhile, pharmacies are losing money on the government’s harebrained scheme to allow concession card holders to access tests. Treating Scott Morrison with the respect he deserved Outgoing Australian of the year Grace Tame refused to smile for the cameras with Scott Morrison next to her. News man Peter Van Onselen chucked a hissy fit about it.
