Coronavirus

The Hon. E.S. BOURKE (15:17): Supplementary arising from the original answer: can the minister outline how the government's message is communicated to industries, from health services to small businesses, impacted by the government's changes in regard to COVID-19?

The Hon. S.G. WADE (Minister for Health and Wellbeing) (15:17): I think the best site in this regard is actually the commonwealth department's website. The Australian government has a very detailed website with a series of information sheets on how these restrictions should be applied. Of course, there is also information on our own government's website. The Premier's department has established an excellent whole-of-government website to not only keep South Australians up to date on the progress of the pandemic in South Australia but also to provide them with information about the restrictions, particularly the South Australian restrictions, the ones put in place by the State Coordinator to implement the decisions in the national cabinet in the South Australian context.

I would certainly encourage the honourable member to use both the commonwealth Department of Health website and the South Australian Department of the Premier and Cabinet website and the SA Health website as very useful doorways into a treasure trove of information.
