COVID-19 Vaccination Rollout

The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Leader of the Opposition) (14:32): I have a final supplementary.

The PRESIDENT: Final, indeed.

The Hon. K.J. MAHER: Does the minister have any information as to how the vaccination rollout on the APY lands will proceed; that is, is there a demographic or a target in terms of who will get the vaccination first? What are the operational logistics of how that will be rolled out?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (14:33): My understanding is that the APY lands in particular is part of phase 1b. In other words, it is a high priority as a region. My understanding is that it won't be elements within the APY community that will be prioritised, but in the end that will be a matter for Nganampa and any partner that it has in delivering on the ground. They know their people best. They know their facilities best. I am certainly not going to tell them how to run these clinics.
