A spokesperson for Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the Australian delegation will be subject to the same rules as others travelling to New Zealand, including the health order, but the Government may move to introduce pre-departure testing. With regard to the upcoming visit of Prime Minister Morrison, we are in close contact with the Australian Government and working through any implications for the visit.
Sunrise reporter Nathan Templeton, speaking to The AM Show on Friday from Melbourne, said it might not be the best look for Morrison to travel to New Zealand when Victoria is in lockdown. At the moment it s only Victorians who are banned from travelling in other states. The number of cases in the rest of Australia is almost non-existent so I guess it should be safe.
The Cross Border-Associated Direction has been updated in South Australia. The Cross Border-Associated Direction No 14 comes into effect at 6pm Wednesday.
