 Mr McCURDY (Ovens Valley) (6001)

My adjournment is to the Premier and the action that I seek is that he immediately reverse his policy that has locked Victorians out of their homes. What kind of world do we live in when you are barred from your own home? I continue to have people from the Ovens Valley stranded in NSW because they cannot get home. Some have been waiting months to get back to their home. Some are at border towns along the Murray River but many are stranded in Northern NSW because the 5-kilometre limit has stopped them from travelling to the border.

Victorians deserve to come home. They will isolate, they will take the COVID tests or the rapid tests that you seem to be stopping this very useful and easy technology to get people home. People will do what is asked but they deserve to come home.

Show some real leadership and support the Victorians that you represent.
