Yesterday (7 June), the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Government passed the Public Health Amendment Bill 2021 (No 2) in the Legislative Assembly. This will allow the ACT Government to continue protecting its citizens from the public health risks of COVID-19 while decreasing from the current public health emergency declaration.
ACT Minister for Health Rachel Stephen-Smith said the changes passed will enable an ongoing proportionate and transparent public health response to COVID-19. The current public health emergency declaration is due to be reviewed by 11 August 2022.
