I will ask the Minister for Health and Aged Care to add to this answer. The matter of mandatory vaccination of aged-care workers was the subject of a national cabinet decision attended by the Premier of New South Wales, where, with the exception of Victoria and the ACT, who have a different set of arrangements that relate to public health orders relating to aged care, all, including the New South Wales Premier, agreed to put in place those public health orders, and I have received several updates from the Premier of New South Wales about their progress towards achieving that. Now, I can only refer to those matters as they've been discussed between me, as Prime Minister, and the Premier of New South Wales. I can't speak to the state of knowledge of the minister for health in New South Wales, but I'll ask the Minister for Health and Aged Care to add further to the answer.
