[by video link] The government has clearly stated, on many occasions, that it is responsible for the supply and delivery of vaccines to Australians so that they can access a vaccine in a timely way. As I've indicated to the chamber already, the information on that Department of Health website should have been updated in a more timely way. It has been updated now, and we will continue to work with communities across this country, through various mechanisms, to ensure that Australians have access to high-quality information, in a way that they can readily receive it, so that we can continue to encourage them to access the vaccines, because we know that the vaccine program is going to be one of the most important ways we work with Australians to come through this COVID-19 pandemic.
