Letter to the Joint Committee on the Valuation Policies and Charges on Retirement Villages

COTA Australia, today welcomed the launch by Attorney General Christian Porter of the National Plan to Respond to the Abuse of Older Australians, including the rollout of a new national, elder abuse free call number and a series of national trials of frontline services.

Chief Executive of COTA Australia, Ian Yates, commended the Federal and state/territory governments for working together to rollout a decisive action plan to reverse the growing incidence of elder abuse suffered by far too many older Australians.

COTA Australia welcomed the introduction of a national framework, which will involve all levels of government, something for which COTA has long advocated.
