In 2010, the Australian Government negotiated with the States and Territories that, aspart of the National Health Reform Agreement, (which Dan didn't want to sign until he got more money whilst hospitals crumbled) the Commonwealth would assume fullresponsibility for the Home and Community Care program. Although, the Statesand Territories retain significant responsibilities in health care and public housing.

True, but the Commonwealth is exclusively responsible for setting and monitoring and maintaining the standards of government subsidised aged care accommodation for those non-aboriginals 65 and over and aboriginals 50 and over. In other words the majority of basic aged care accommodation services!

(See pp 53-54 of the agreement http://www.federalfinancialrelations.gov.au/content/npa/health/_archive/national-agreement.pdf)
