staff with the appropriate skills to meet the needs of the residents of the service, as is the current process. Governance changes. The creation of the Australian Aged Care Quality Agency will bring quality reviews of Residential Care and the new Home Care packages under the same structure. While ARV supports this approach, we note that the current arrangement does not require Approved Providers of Community/Home Care to pay any fees for the quality reviews conducted by DoHA. The changes state that fees would be payable by Home Care providers, once they fall under the remit of Quality Agency. Current funding does not provide for this. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this feedback.
