Scott Morrison has doubled down on his support for Mark McGowan's indefinite delay to Western Australia's reopening.
Premier Mark McGowan did the right thing by delaying Western Australia's reopening, Prime Minister Scott Morrison has said.
Western Australia's border controls will be reviewed this month but Premier Mark McGowan has stopped short of nominating an exact date.
February 5 was meant to be the date Western Australia shook itself out of its long, self-imposed, COVID-19 hibernation and reconnected with Australia.
Premier Mark McGowan has defended the decision to extend Western Australia’s hard border beyond the initial February 5 reopening date, revealing “many people” have contacted him expressing their support for the move.
