INTERSTATE BORDER RESTRICTIONS
597. Mr D.T. REDMAN to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question. Does the Premier's
response mean that the state will cater for and allow back into Western Australia
as many people who chose to make an application?

AnswerView source ↗

No, because there is a process by which people have to apply
for an exemption, and only those who are granted an exemption will be permitted
in.
