My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Gallagher. This week the Queensland Supreme Court found that measures relating to COVID were mandated on a number of Queensland workers—in this case, police officers and ambulance workers—without adequate consideration of their human rights, as required under the Queensland Human Rights Act. Clearly, this failure is not isolated to Queensland, given that the Queensland government's approach was applied through the National Cabinet, of which the Commonwealth is a member and the chair. Minister, does the Prime Minister accept that vaccine mandates were the National Cabinet's mistake?
