“We’ve seen a seven-fold increase in the rate of infection of those in Howard Springs coming back from India,” he told 2GB on Monday morning.
Deputy Nationals leader Matt Canavan said the government needed to fix the quarantine system rather than leaving Australians stranded overseas.Loadingand called the threat of jail for those returning an “extraordinary” policy. “The government’s got to justify how it is that the figures from India are similar to what they’ve been in the past from the UK and the US, but we haven’t seen these sort of measures.”
phbarratt rachelclun Except here is the explicit advice to make it an offence to return home from India From Dr Kelly to Minister Hunt on the 30th April In which he notes 'The penalty for breaching a s477 determination is 5 years jail or $66,600 or both.' and
rachelclun So we are told lies by this govt. What else don't we know
rachelclun Even a tiny bit of deceit is dishonorable ScottMorrisonMP when it’s used for selfish or cowardly reasons like yours.
rachelclun The Morrison Government is morally corrupt We need to bring our people home urgently
rachelclun It's automatically applied via the act.
rachelclun No point having a law without a penalty if you break it. Otherwise it’s just a suggestion.
rachelclun What follows is a terrible thing to say and I don’t say it lightly ... but the Morrison government increasingly resembles Trump’s America. Deceit, lies, division, racism, white supremacism, etc. We have become an international embarrassment
rachelclun Makes sense. God didn’t contribute to this policy.
phbarratt rachelclun Well, no. there was no specific action on penalties because they were already provided for in the Act. But the regulation was made in the knowledge that those penalties were involved.
rachelclun Must have 14 days Jail system and 660AUD law breaching fine. 🤗

Federal government 'following the advice of health agencies' with India travel ban | Sky News AustraliaLiberal Senator Andrew Bragg says the government is “following the advice of health agencies” with regard to the temporary India travel ban and the harsh penalties for breaking the ban.\n\n“We are following the advice of the health agencies here and putting in place the strongest possible deterrents and these are very strong deterrents,” he told Sky News. \n\n“It’s regrettable they are necessary but we are trying to do our best to address the situation of the transmission that’s been occurring in places like Howard Springs.”\n\nMr Bragg said there was “very strong community feeling” in Indian and Australian communities but data from the Northern Territory quarantine facility showed COVID-19 cases dropping. \n\n“I think the data that is out of again Howard Springs is already that has had the effect that’s been desired and now there’s a lower level of cases in that facility.”\n ajamesbragg Morrison needs to come out and state that all Aussies travelling overseas cannot be guaranteed of return and may die abroad with no government assistance. Otherwise he's a first degree xenophobe. ajamesbragg Well that may or may not be true, but if the federal govt. had set up better Quarantine we could bring Australians home. ajamesbragg Stick with it ScottMorrisonMP as Labor still looking to bring down our borders when we need it the most.

Federal government 'got it wrong' with 'distressing' messaging on India travel ban | Sky News AustraliaAMA Vice President Dr Chris Moy says the federal government “got it wrong” with their “distressing” messaging surrounding the Indian travel ban, and possible fines and jail time for Australians attempting to return home. \n\nUnder the Biosecurity Act the federal government threatened Australians who attempted to return home from India during the two-week travel ban with a $66,000 fine or five-year jail term. \n\nHowever, on Tuesday Prime Minister Scott Morrison conceded there was “pretty much zero chance” those caught travelling home would be jailed or fined.\n\n“To be sure the AMA did support the pause basically to sure up hotel quarantine which has been showing significant leaks due to the number of cases and also the possible increasing infectivity of some variants,” Dr Moy said.\n\n“But we do think the message was significantly poor … and they got it wrong.\n\n“There are issues in hotel quarantine, and we need to fix those things in the short term but also look at long term solutions.\n\n “We’ve got to get those vulnerable Australians back because they’re Australians, they’re our brothers and sisters”. \n No Chris they got it right
