This is going to be great! It's one that is completely unprompted and has no notes written for it at all and, in fact, no thought put into it! It is therefore coming from the heart. I want to spend tonight paying tribute to the Gutwein government in Tasmania for their handling of the COVID pandemic, because, just today, we found out that 50 per cent of the population has received their first dose of the vaccination, which is a great thing. It is something that is being managed in Tasmania quite well by that government, so I want to put on record my congratulations to that government but, more importantly, to the people of Tasmania who have volunteered to go out and roll up their sleeve and have the jab to protect other Tasmanians. I wonder if we're going to get some sound?
