Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. What I specifically want to know is: given the exceptional living conditions of Aboriginal communities—for example, crowded living conditions and the health burden they already have—is the government prepared to put extra resources into the Northern Territory to make sure that remote communities have access to the resources and the vaccines to deal with this issue now, before it gets out of hand? On top of that, what resources are going into the NT now, and will you increase them?
