CARE
867. Ms M.M. QUIRK to the Minister for
Health:
I have a supplementary question. In
light of the ministerXXX ###XXXs answer, will he give
assurances that the changes to HACC will not have the unintended consequence of
reducing local government services to seniors and the aged?

I will certainly seek further
information on that issue. I do not have any reason to believe that those
services will be reduced. It has not been raised with me previously, but I will
ensure that the issue is considered seriously.
