Question: Shaun Robert Cousins - UBS Investment Bank, Research Division - Analyst

any impact on availability? I'm just concerned around you've got 3.5 -- sorry, 3,300 staff in isolation. I assume because they're in exposure stores,

Question: Ross Curran - Macquarie Research - Analyst
: Actually, I had a pretty similar sort of follow-on question on BIG W. The lockdowns you said in Melbourne happened right during that sort of winter
apparel clearance period. How are you thinking about sort of winter apparels clearing? And is that accounted for in the guidance you've given us
for the first half?
