Again, I acknowledge the great work Senator Ahearn had done on this area during the pandemic and since. As a father, I wholly understand the need for support partners to be present in maternity services and that the newborn's siblings get that unique, once in a lifetime opportunity, to see their newborn sibling in hospital. I will raise the Senator's concerns with the Minister for Health and ask him to come back to the Senator directly.
