While I've got everyone here, I just want to correct a media error that occurred on the Insiders: Talking Pictures program, where there was commentary to the effect that these perspex screens that are here were finally here after 18 months and there was a slight on the department. Can I just point out what I thought was fairly obvious: they're here because of the outbreak in the ACT. That's why they're here. There are a lot of people doing a lot of hard work, and I just wanted to correct that. I'm not going to correct every accuracy that occurs, because, as you all know, we'd need to extend the sittings probably for an extra week.
