I welcome Justin, Bridget and Lianne. Mr. Moran said the rights of older persons were not effectively protected in our current human rights infrastructure and that a new international convention on the rights of older people would go a long way towards fixing this. How does one move from the convention, and its principles and ideals, to practical support for older people on the ground? We respect the rights of older people, but many of them, particularly those on their own, do not have the necessary supports on the ground.

How does that lead towards providing practical services for these older people?
