We have not forced any Australians to do anything. We have empowered individual Australians to make their own decisions. It is up to them. They are using their own money. They're exercising their own free judgement. It is an important measure to complement the very significant support that we have put in place through an effective doubling of jobseeker support and, of course, our $130 billion JobKeeper program, providing support to six million Australians. Quite frankly, that question is completely out of touch.
