JUST IN: The PM says Australia is open to bringing visitors from New Zealand, as long as travellers were not coming from hotspots. 9News

He said it was possible the new travel arrangement with New Zealand could be in place by Christmas, touting it both as a bonus for the tourism industry and as a help for Australians seeking to come home.

However, the arrangement will depend on a system being in place to identify hotspots in New Zealand as well as Australia.But seven of eight jurisdictions have agreed to using a hotspot model as a rubric for reopening the states.

Mate, we are still getting morons from Victorian hotspots able to get on flights domestically. This is a stupid statement!

C'mon, we need to open to the world, US, UK, Brazil, Sweden, Europe, China, cruise ships let them in, just don't tell emergency health care workers.

TaylorM90906605 So tourists from NZ could come in, but I still can’t have my partner reunited with me who I haven’t seen in 11 months... even though he’d quarantine, be tested, follow all protocol. Nice!

We are in W.A. so for this situation we are excluded and not considered to be part of Australia! We are safe and our jobs are up and running! Can't rely of Keeper & Seeker business! Can't Thank enough! We are lucky to have MarkMcGowanMP !

Nope. No more ppl from Communist countries please ScottMorrisonMP

So he already has a definition of a hotspot if he is making this statement. So when is a hotspot not a hotspot?

You can't have states in lock down, than do this. It's a slap in the face

Students escaped the campus with the government force them learning Chinses language instead of Mongolian language

Yeah why not, wave 2 was fun for Victoria so let’s open borders and get stuck into wave 3 😎

So NZ can come here but I still can’t cross a border for uni. That’s nice.

He is making this stuff up. He is not in control. He has failed to provide sufficient quarantine facilities to enable international air travel to begin again. Qantas won’t be in a position to fly internationally for years 9NewsSyd

Protest for your freedoms!

How about bringing all stranded Aussies home?

Can we not? Pretty rich saying you'll get internationals in, yet I STILL can't see my family in NSW.

Has anyone noticed there is no criticism of the liberal party since Peter Costello took over as chairman of channel nine auspol qldpol springst nswpol wapol

I'm sure they would love to come from a non hotspot to a hotspot . . and pay good money to do so . . 🙄
