Dear Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Communications,

Under FOI I am seeking information from your documents held as to the current status of the covid vaccine rollout to citizens of the Jervis Bay Territory and whether there are any recorded cases in the population there so far. How many citizens of JBT have been vaccinated with 1st dose and with the 2nd.

I would also like confirmation from documents as to the current numbers and percentage of the population of all other Australian external territories under your administration which have received their 1st and 2nd covid vaccinations.

Yours faithfully,

Albert Frankaland
