In May 2025, AAG reached out to members and the AAG Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Ageing Advisory Group (ATSIAAG) and held an online drop-in session to gauge their sense of readiness and steps being taken to prepare for the incoming new Aged Care Act 2024 (at the time scheduled to take effect from 1 July 2025).
Since the postponement of the new Aged Care Act until 1 November 2025, AAG ATSIAAG members have voiced support for the delayed implementation. Further follow-up with our members has been incorporated into this paper, along with additional details in response to preliminary feedback from the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing on the draft paper.
