My question is to the Minister for Industry, Energy and Emissions Reduction. Can the minister confirm that in October last year, industry minister No. 6 said that we would establish mRNA manufacturing capability within the year and that in May this year industry minister No. 7 said, 'You're looking at a 12-month-plus time frame,' and that now we have industry minister No. 8 saying, 'We're looking at two years, but can't be sure'? When are you going to stop making and remaking announcements, and actually deliver locally manufactured mRNA vaccines in Australia?
