My question is again to the Acting Prime Minister. The government announced that all aged-care workers would be fully vaccinated by Easter, but the minister just confirmed that only 41,000 of 360,000 workers, or one in nine, have been fully vaccinated as of today. Can the Acting Prime Minister explain why this document shows the tender to allow onsite vaccinations for aged-care staff has been extended and now does not close until the end of July?
