I'm glad that we have informed opposition members on the other side, as I want to refer to the CHO-Premier contrivance that has driven what have turned out to be eight different responses to COVID. I remind everyone—I'm sure there's agreement—that there is only one set of public health evidence, and we shouldn't have advice to premiers that leads to eight different approaches. That may well be the federated approach here in Australia, but the medical advice has not been done appropriately and hasn't been relied on centrally.
