My question is to the Treasurer. I thank him for his earlier answer, but I ask again: does the Treasurer maintain that most residents of disability-care facilities and most aged-care and disability staff have been fully vaccinated?

The rollout of the vaccine has been gaining pace, including in disability-care places as well as aged-care places, and those opposite should support the rollout of the vaccine as we on the side of the House do.
