NSW has called on the Morrison Government to create a new fit-for-purpose quarantine facility in the state to supplement its hotel quarantine system.
In light of an agreement between the Victorian and federal governments to build a quarantine facility at Avalon, NSW confirmed it would also be open to a similar project.
“NSW would welcome a quarantine facility owned and operated by the commonwealth as a way of increasing quarantine capacity,” a government spokesman said.
The New South Wales Premier said it s much more challenging to suppress the virus while residents are moving around and suggested the Victoria did not have confidence in its system.
A recent addition to Gladys Berejiklian s corporate wardrobe has become a much-loved favourite due to a special connection.
The New South Wales Premier made a trendy fashion statement at a public health briefing last week rocking a black cropped jacket by popular Australian designer label MARCS.
The texualised single-breasted jacket which retails for $279.95 online is fittingly named Gladys .
The Premier s office has confirmed Ms Berejiklian owns the Gladys jacket from MARCS but was unable to say if she chose the outfit because of its name, the Daily Telegraph reported.
