The trouble is that the funding comes from different mechanisms so there is a bit of work to do around that.

I thank all the witnesses for attending the committee this morning. I really hope that this is an ongoing engagement. All members of the committee want to see action fairly quickly on this issue although it may take a while to come to fruition and for people to see what is being done. We welcome the ongoing engagement and the witnesses' time here this morning. I thank them for that.

I propose that the committee seek written submissions from Home Instead, and if there are any other organisations that members would like to include then I ask that the members email Fiona to let her know.
