NSW Premier confirms new date for unvaccinated freedoms

NSW Premier Dominic Perrottet has announced changes to the state’s reopening roadmap, including a revised date for unvaccinated people to regain freedom of movement.

Further freedoms for fully-vaccinated people will be brought forward from December 1 to November 8, including the removal of a cap on indoor gatherings, and density limits lifted to one-person-per-2qm rule in businesses.

No rules will apply to outdoor gatherings below 1000 people, and nightclubs will be allowed to reopen.

Entertainment facilities such as cinemas and theatres can return to 100 per cent capacity, as can outdoor facilities such as stadiums.

Indoor pools will also completely reopen.

The unvaccinated will need to wait until the state hits 95 per cent of the population fully-vaccinated or December 15 (whichever happens first) before having restrictions lifted confirming Ray Hadley’s exclusive information.

“We want to make sure that as we open up, we open up safely, [and] our vaccination rates have been key,” the Premier said.

“We want a united society, and we believe that by moving that date back to December 15 that will incentivise.

“We are hopeful that we can get that rate up to 95 per cent, and that will not just be nation-leading, that will be world-leading.”

173 new locally acquired cases have been recorded, from almost 59,000 tests.
