Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety
Final Report Volume 1

I heard evidence in my first hearing in this Commission from Uncle Brian Campbell. At the end of his evidence he asked politely if he could ask one question, which was:

I've sat with Royal Commissions into deaths in custody. I’ve sat with the Bringing Them Home hearing; right? And out of all of them hardly anything gets done, and is this one going to be the same?[1]

In this report we present different mechanisms through which we see how the system can be fundamentally improved. Our disagreement about the best way for improvement to be achieved is not a justification for doing nothing.
