The Labor Party tries to make this something that it's not. As I've said, I'm focusing on my job with the ERC and with the Prime Minister on a daily basis, and with the finance minister, with the Treasurer, with the Minister for Social Security and anyone else who is seconded to the committee with the Minister for Health. That's on a daily basis. Any suggestion the Labor Party tries to make that this pandemic has not received my full attention, the Prime Minister's full attention and the government's full attention is just not so. We have been there every single day to make sure that the resources that need to be brought to bear can be brought to bear and are brought to bear.
