I thank the senator for the question. As I've just indicated, state premiers and territory leaders were updated this morning on the supply projections for COVID-19 vaccines out to the end of 2021. The state leaders agreed that they would continue to prioritise category 1a and 1b people seeking vaccines during that period of time. So we will continue to work cooperatively with the states and territories on the national vaccine rollout to ensure that Australians, as we've indicated, have the opportunity to get a first dose of the vaccine by the end of 2021.
