Response To The Lockdown Being Extended

I support the Premier’s lockdown decision because she has followed the Health advice to the letter.

While following the Health advice is our number one priority I am also acutely aware of the impact this lockdown is having on our families, workers and businesses.

Currently NSW Health remains very concerned about a “seeding event” occurring in the Central Coast region.

However if this risk does subside and if we record no local cases over the next few days, I will fiercely advocate for the Premier and Dr Chant to end the Central Coast region’s lockdown.

We do not want the lockdown to go for one day longer than what is necessary. That is why everyone must continue to stay at home and follow the rules.
