Again, Senator Roberts, the Australian government has put in place incredibly strict procedures at the border, and you will be aware that we have taken a number of decisions in relation to those who are now able to enter Australia. And, in fact, a number of the states, Queensland being the most recent, have also now put in place very, very strict procedures in relation to who is able to enter the particular state, and, if they do, the conditions for the self-isolation that they are now required to undertake. So, Senator Roberts, in answer to your question, the Australian government has taken a comprehensive response to the issues that you have raised.
