          <by role="member" id="3164">The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:39):</by>  It is an interesting point, really, because it is actually part of a commonwealth-state agreement under the National Immunisation Program. The commonwealth manages the supply. We order through the commonwealth supply mechanism. We have both internal—that is, SA Department for Health and Wellbeing—and multilateral—that is, across all jurisdictions—mechanisms to both coordinate the supply of vaccinations and coordinate the response.</text>
