Senator COLBECK (Tasmania—Minister for Sport and Minister for Senior Australians and Aged Care Services) (14:59): What the Prime Minister was doing was reinforcing the work that has been prepared for national cabinet, which has been agreed to by national cabinet and supported by the modelling of the Doherty institute. To reinforce that, the national cabinet has requested that additional work to update that Doherty modelling be commissioned to support the program. And, as the Chief Medical Officer said yesterday, the fundamentals of that modelling don't change. I think it's dishonest of Labor, as it has been throughout the pandemic, to be frank, to suggest that this question be considered in isolation from all of the other things that we're doing, including the increase in vaccination. We've seen over a million Australians in the last four days receive a vaccination. We've seen day after day— The PRESIDENT: Senator Watt, on a point of order? Senator Watt: On relevance. We're getting lots of rhetoric from the minister, but we're not getting an answer to the question, which is simply whether it's the government's position that New South Wales should open up when it hits a rate of 70 per cent vaccination, irrespective of case numbers. The PRESIDENT: Again, Senator Watt, I'm going to insist that, rather than just take the opportunity to say the answer is not appreciated and then read out the question again, particularly when it's only part of the question being read—it contained a number of quotations that refer to a rather comprehensive area of public policy. The minister is directly relevant to that by addressing the issue of vaccination. I can't instruct him on how to answer a question. But I don't think anyone would assert that that is not relevant to the modelling that you refer to. Senator COLBECK: Of course, the modelling includes a whole range of different measures that support reopening the Australian economy, which is what we all want. We want Australians to be able to move more freely, and there are a number of actions that are being taken by state governments and the Commonwealth government to facilitate that. There are restrictions on movement that are being taken to limit the spread of the virus. That's what we're doing. We're increasing and continuing to increase the pace of the rollout, with records being posted nearly every day for the number of Australians who are turning out to get a vaccine. We thank every single one of them for doing so, and we encourage more to continue to do that. We want to see our economy open. We want to see Australians being able to move around. We'll continue to do everything we can to facilitate that. The PRESIDENT: Senator Watt, a supplementary question?
