The purpose of this Part is to require persons who: a. have been in a place of concern since 13 May 2021 (a relevant person); and b. entered Queensland between 1.00am on 27 May 2021 and 12.59am on 28 May 2021; to quarantine in order to limit the spread of COVID-19. 5. A person is taken not to have been in a place of concern under this Direction if the person: a. arrived in a place of concern by air for the sole purpose of transiting through an airport in the place of concern and did not leave the confines of the airport; or b. transited through a place of concern by road using private transport stopping only for essential fuel and fatigue management and did not stay overnight in a place of concern; or c. arrived in a place of concern by road and used private transport to travel directly from their point of arrival to an airport in a place of concern, stopping only for essential fuel and fatigue management to depart the place of concern by air. 6. A relevant person who enters or has entered Queensland between 1.00am on 27 May 2021 and 12.59am on 28 May 2021 must quarantine in accordance with the requirements under Part 2 from the commencement of this Direction at: a. the person’s place of residence; or b. another place that is suitable for the person to reside in. Note: a relevant person who enters Queensland from 1.00am on 28 May 2021 must comply with the Border Restrictions Direction (No. 24). 7. Despite paragraph 6, a relevant person who enters Queensland between 1.00am on 27 May 2021 and 12.59am on 28 May 2021 and has visited an interstate exposure venue must quarantine in accordance with the Interstate Exposure Venues Direction (No. 2). 8. If a relevant person develops symptoms consistent with COVID-19, they must undertake a COVID-19 test as soon as reasonably practicable. HOT SPOTS VICTORIA: Source of information: For further information please view the following link: https://www.health.qld.gov.au/system-governance/legislation/cho-public-health-directions- under-expanded-public-health-act-powers/declared-hotspots-direction Interstate areas of concern (vulnerable facilities) are places in Australia that present an increased COVID-19 risk, that is not as high as hotspots. They do not restrict people from entering Queensland, however you should follow local movement or travel rules before coming to Queensland. Border restrictions Border Restrictions Direction (No. 24) What will change from 1am AEST 28 May 2021 All of Victoria is a declared COVID-19 hotspot. o Anyone who has been in Victoria in the last 14 days or since the start date identified for the hotspot (whichever is shorter) will not be allowed to enter Queensland, except for a limited range of people who can enter for essential purposes. o Anyone who has been in Victoria in the last 14 days must apply for a Queensland Border Declaration Pass three business days before they enter Queensland. Overview COVID-19 hotspots are updated regularly. Currently all of Victoria is a declared hotspot. People who have been in a COVID-19 hotspot in the last 14 days or since the start date identified for the hotspot (whichever is shorter) will not be allowed to enter Queensland, except for a limited range of people who can enter for essential purposes. People who are permitted to enter Queensland who have been in a COVID-19 hotspot within the last 14 days or since the start date identified for the hotspot (whichever is shorter) will have to quarantine for 14 days at government arranged accommodation. Queensland residents who have been in a COVID-19 hotspot can return home by air and new residents can relocate to Queensland but, they will have to quarantine in government arranged accommodation at their own expense. Anyone who arrives in Queensland and has been in a COVID-19 hotspot in the last 14 days or since the start date identified for the hotspot (whichever is shorter) will need to apply for a Queensland Border Declaration Pass before they enter Queensland. Anyone who has been in a state or territory with a COVID-19 hotspot will also need to apply for a Queensland Border Declaration Pass before they enter Queensland. As soon as a place is removed from the list of COVID-19 hotspots, you can enter Queensland even if you had been to that place in the 14 days before. For example, the Northern Territory is decided by the Chief Health Officer to be a COVID-19 hotspot on 1 June 2020 and removed as a COVID-19 hotspot from 10am on 1 September 2020. You may enter Queensland from 10am on 1 September 2020, even if you had been in the Northern Territory during the previous 14 days. What do I need to do to be able to enter Queensland? Everyone entering Queensland who has been in a declared hotspot in the last 14 days or since the start date identified for the hotspot (whichever is shorter) must: provide a Queensland Border Declaration Pass provide satisfactory evidence of identity such as a driver’s license or Medicare card children do not need to provide proof of identity any other evidence required commit to get get tested for COVID-19 if you develop symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, loss of smell or taste, runny nose, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting or fatigue) within 14 days of entering Queensland. If you are entering Queensland from somewhere that is not a declared hotspot you must: apply for a Queensland Border Declaration Pass if you have been in a state or territory with a COVID-19 hotspot in the last 14 days get tested for COVID-19 if you develop symptoms (fever, cough, shortness of breath, sore throat, loss of smell or taste, runny nose, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting or fatigue) keep up to date with COVID-19 news to be aware of any hotspot announcements.

    Objection 60 Charles Richardson 14 pages Victorian secretariat Phone (03) 9285 7197 Fax (02) 6293 7664 Email [email protected] FEDERAL REDISTRIBUTION 2020-21: VICTORIA OBJECTIONS to the PROPOSAL of the VICTORIAN REDISTRIBUTION COMMITTEE From CHARLES RICHARDSON I am grateful for the opportunity to make objections to the proposal for the redistribution of federal electoral boundaries in Victoria, as released by the Redistribution Committee on 19 March 2021. I commend the Committee on its work, which does an excellent job of satisfying the statutory criteria without causing unnecessary disruption to existing boundaries. There are, however, a number of places where I believe its work could be improved upon, which I outline below. It is reasonable to assume that the Augmented Electoral Commission will try to avoid any large-scale overhaul of the Committee's work, so none of my objections involve rethinking the proposed boundaries from scratch. (Number 16, relating to the Maroondah Highway corridor, is the closest thing to an exception to this rule.) That said, I am disappointed that the Committee has again chosen not to try to resolve the unsatisfactory state of McEwen, whose lack of any coherent geographical principle reduces the quality of representation provided for its residents. I would fully support the Commission if it were to revisit that decision. It is also my view that those making objections should confine themselves to cases where they have something better to suggest, and should not point to problems if they are unable to, even vaguely, offer solutions. As an example, I must point out the unseemly nature of the Committee's proposed eastward extension of Isaacs, into the triangle formed by Thompson Road, the Western Port Highway and the Cranbourne railway.
