CANBERRANS forced into home quarantine after spikes in the number of COVID-19 cases are seeking some form of financial compensation.
The ACT government can confirm that 10,600 people are currently on stay-at-home orders.
Most of those recent visitors to Sydney hotspots in particular have been unable to work for at least 14 days.
The clusters have also grown to such an extent along with the discovery on a daily basis of new exposure sites that thousands of people returning to the ACT from trips have lost their only source of income.
The concern over a lack of remuneration for their inconvenience of isolating has caught the attention of the ACT government.
