COVID-19: Cautious Calculated Risk

NEW South Wales Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the state will reopen the border with Victoria at midnight on Monday, November 23.

“There will be free movement between NSW and Victoria,” Ms Berejiklian said.

“In fact, NSW will be the only jurisdiction in Australia that will be welcoming residents of all states.

“With that, there comes some level of risk and we accept that but we believe that it’s a cautious risk, it’s a calculated risk.

To manage risk, the use of QR codes will also be mandatory for hospitality business from November 23.

“There is no reason why that within the next three weeks, all businesses shouldn’t QR codes,” said Ms Berejiklian.

“We strongly recommend people adopting the Service NSW QR code.”
