on indulgence—I join with the government in wishing all of our athletes all the best in Tokyo. It's been a particularly tough time for people in sporting communities, with the uncertainty that's been created due to COVID, particularly around international events. I wish the Japanese government all the best as well in hosting the games, and we look forward to watching on our screens. My understanding is that there won't be any Australian tourists present there, for the first time at any Olympic Games, due to health concerns, which are perfectly understandable. But to all our athletes: Australia is with you as always.
